High-rate On-Board Drift Tube electronics testing — •Matej Repik, Dmitry Eliseev, Thomas Hebbeker, and Markus Merschmeyer — III. Physikalisches Institut A, Aachen, Germany

A general-purpose detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS), undergoes changes that are summed up under the Phase 2 Upgrade. As one of the CMS muon-detecting subsystems, the drift tube chambers (DT) also require an upgrade. Among others, the plans foresee new On-Board Drift Tube (OBDT) electronics to replace the previous electronics. OBDTs congregate front-end signals from the DT chambers and stream the acquired data to the CMS back-end. Each OBDT also implements certain slow control routines. As for every complex device, quality assurance is essential for the new OBDT electronics. Consequently, a test system for OBDT is being developed by the DT collaboration with the following requirements: emulate drift tube front-end signals at the expected high hit rates and record the response of OBDT. This talk focuses on the aforementioned test system and its implementation at RWTH Aachen University.
