RD53 1
Full/large demonstrator chip submission ◦ When: 2016 A.Early 2016: If chip must have been fully demonstrated in test beams for TDRs to be made in Will be high risk submission Uncertain if we can get project team together for this B.Mid-End 2016: Assuring that all building blocks have been well tested, radiation qualified and global design thoroughly verified. ◦ Cost: ~1M $/Euro/CHF (we better get this right) A.1M: Full engineering run for full scale chip B.700k: Reduced size chip using MLM C.Shared engineering run with others (~300k from others). RD53 will take majority (2/3) of reticle to make 2x2cm 2 chip Schedule driven by RD53 Converge distributed WG work to single chip design Converge on specifications, architecture, etc. All RD53 activities must converge on this “final” goal 2
