New architecture
Scenario’s
1. Larger silicon inner area, same amount of electronics2. 50% less straws , 50% Scintilating Fibers
We assume the scenario1 where we change all FE’s to new ones nr 2 is less work and less costly
New Front Ends, new TDC selection
We need a new OTIS TDC with 40Mc output instead of 1Mc
To adapt the OTIS tdc there was too little manpower in the chip development area
FPGA solutions can be with Actel antifuse, Actel Proasic or Altera
For the selection of Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) components we have to know the new radiation levels
How much radiation do we get in the worst spot (T3)
Expected levels, check Antonio:

Radiation Test Proasic3E
2010-2013 Syracuse uni200Mev Protons in Boston hospital
Prelim results see also LHCb Electronics Upgrade Meeting, 7/21/2011
About same as SPECS test above-Ram few SEU every 3min run of few kRad-Flash rom dito-Pll tested end 2012 good chips increasing tdc errors 20-37 on 8*10^9 measurements per run of few krad 2 bad chips 3*10^9 (tdc value changefrom 10>11?) a lock error occurred only 1 time during all tests
2004 results Specs proasic (in our Control boxes)(Not published, Saclay, Dominique Breton, Jaque l Fr.)
1.Programmable upto 17 kRad2.Still funtions until 30 kRad, then high current and malfunction)
Conclusion
The Proasic can measure 5 bits with acceptable bin size variation(see results measurement albert)
All proasic tdc boards have to be replaced after several years of running to be able to run for 10 years in radiation
