EUDET-type silicon pixel telescopes are widely used as test beam infrastructure to provide precision reference tracking for detector development, for example at the DESY II test beam facility. They each feature six tracking planes equipped with Mimosa26 sensors.
Experiments at future facilities demand excellent time and space resolution to be combined in a single detector. The R&D on these novel detectors requires the availability of a new reference system at test beams that is also capable of precise time resolution. Within the research program of the Cluster of Excellence Quantum Universe, our group will equip the existing telescopes with an additional plane providing timing resolution in the order of tens of picoseconds.
In this contribution, the short- and mid-term plans for such an upgrade will be presented: The timing layer will use LGADs bump-bonded to a dedicated readout chip and integrated in the already vastly used EUDAQ2. In the first stage the Timepix4 chip will be used, which will allow a resolution on the order of nanoseconds.
