Description
The MuPix Telescope consists of up to eight layers of MuPix sensors, controlled and read out by two FPGAs. It is optimized to run at high particle rates of up to 1 MHz and provides precise reference timing using a coincidence of two scintillating tiles, which are timestamped with a 500 MHz clock. Online monitoring as well as online track reconstruction and efficiency calculations guarantee efficient test beam campaigns.
The used pixel sensor is the MuPix7, a high voltage monolithic active pixel sensor thinned to 50 um with a fully integrated data driven readout, as well as on chip timestamps and an on chip transmitter sending a serial 1.25 GBit/s data stream to the readout FPGA. The MuPix7 has a Matrix of 32x40 pixels. Each pixel has a size of 80x103 um^2.
I will discuss the MuPix7 features, working principle of the telescope and the performance at test beams. Additionally highlights from the test beam campaigns 2016 are shown.
