26. 4 January 2006Michael Campbell Timepix Development  Proposed in 2003 but funding difficult  Timepix included in EUDet proposal  Brainstorming meetings at CERN  Outcome Keep Timepix as similar as possible to Medipix2 in order to benefit from large prior effort in R/O hardware and software Avoid major changes in pixel and/or readout logic – risk of chip failure due to poor mixed mode modelling Eliminate 2nd threshold Add possibility of programming pixel by pixel arrival time or TOT information  2 possible timestamp methods under study Local oscillator per pixel Clock sent to all pixels

27. 4 January 2006Michael Campbell TOT in one pixel TOT width as a function of threshold for a constant input charge

28. 4 January 2006Michael Campbell Conclusions  TimePix is heavily based on Medipix2 effort  CERN, Nikhef (J. Visschers), Napoli (P. Russo) and recently Prague (S. Pospisil) have been main contributors to Medipix2  Changes to functionality for TimePix should be minimized to avoid chip design failures  Work on simulating the new possible architectures is already underway (X. Llopart)
