SuperB SVT 40 cm 30 cm 20 cm Layer0 Layer Radius 0 1.5 cm 1 3.3 cm 2 4.0 cm 3 5.9 cm 4 9.1 to 12.7 cm 5 11.4 to 14.6 cm Baseline: use an SVT similar to the BaBar one adding a Layer 0 Layer 0 options: double layer thin MAPS pixels, striplets (double sided), single layer hybrid pixel. Load to DAQ calculated for MAPS double layer. Each layer has several modules, mechanically independent units (52+8) Each module has 2 half-modules, electrically independent units: Sensor, front-end chips, HDI with power/signal input and data output link Pixel half-module Strip(lets) half-module Data Pixel sensor + front-end chips HDI Power/Signal HDI Si Wafers Data Power/Signal Front-end chips Frascati, 2/12/09
Layer0 peculiarities MAPS Pixel sensors (40 um pitch) Rad hard environment Large machine background ( 15 mm from beam line) Fundamental the first point of a track for vertexing MAPS Pixel sensors (40 um pitch) Apsel6D – or similar 320x216 pixels a 40 um pitch. Active Area = 110 mm2 Completely data driven architecture Space time coordinates Time granularity down to 100 ns from 0.2-2.0 us Time ordered hits External Time stamp clock. Hit rate expected: 110 Mhit/s/chip (with a safety factor>5). Frascati, 2/12/09

SVT in trigger schema Purposes/Advantages Thanks to the data-push architecture of FSSR, L1-L5 will be read out continuously L3-L5 could be used for online-track finding Purposes/Advantages Early (<2µs) identification of interesting events L1 triggering Background track identification tracks not coming from primary vertex region Bhabha veto (?) Back to back in r-phi Quick track finding might speed-up downstream processing Seeded track finding; reduction of reconstruction farm Many ideas, many possibilities, but no systematic study yet Frascati, 2/12/09
Conclusions and main numbers Full SVT readout with 56 Front-End Boards 56 DAQ links, 56 ECS, 56 FTCS Large use of 1 Gbit/s Optical links (284 in total) Moderate use of DAQ links (2 Gbit/s) assuming suitable ROS data grouping SVT Time-tagging of events every 132 ns; Events span a time range of 3x132 ns=396 ns. Event size: 36 kB (with a safety factor of 5 on background rate at L0) Possibility for early (<2µs) track finding for L1 applications or seeded reconstruction at HLTs Frascati, 2/12/09
