Readout electronics and module design of MADHAT — •Malte Grönbeck for the ALICE Germany collaboration — Helmholtz-Institut für Strahlen- und Kernphysik — Forschungs- und Technologiezentrum Detektorphysik

The ALICE experiment plans a completely new tracking detector based on silicon MAPS technology manufactored in the 65 nm production node as part of the ALICE 3 upgrade for Long Shutdown 4 of the LHC. The size of the whole active area is planned to be 60 m² large, with the Outer Tracker spanning 45 m².

To reach the material budget target of less than 1% X₀ per layer, open questions like cooling solutions, mechanical structures and electronics have to be answered. A simple sensor prototype MADHAT (Mechanical Assessment Design for Heat And Thermal solutions), mechanically identical to the final sensor, but with integrated heating elements and temperature probes, was developed to study the temperature distribution in the final detector assembly and to assess different mechanical designs of the circuit board that houses the sensor.

This talk will present the readout electronics of MADHAT and discuss different design options of a module prototype for the ALICE 3 Outer Tracker.

This work is supported by BMBF.
