BDAQ53, a Verification and Characterization Environment for the ATLAS Pixel Readout Chip RD53A — Michael Daas, Jochen Dingfelder, Tomasz Hemperek, Jens Janssen, Hans Krüger, David-Leon Pohl, •Marco Vogt, and Norbert Wermes — Physikalisches Institut der Universität Bonn

For the High Luminosity upgrade of the LHC at CERN in 2025, new readout chips for the ATLAS and CMS pixel detectors are required. Due to the drastically increased instantaneous luminosity, they will have to deliver much higher data rates compared to the current FE-I4 generation and ensure unprecedented radiation tolerance, especially close to the interaction point.

The large-scale prototype chip RD53A has been designed and manufactured by the RD53 collaboration in a 65 nm CMOS process, suitable for the inner layers of both the ATLAS and the CMS experiment. The test and data acquisition environment BDAQ53 has been developed to verify the digital design and to characterize the prototype chips.

In this talk, the implementation of BDAQ53 and first measurements of RD53A will be shown.
