Abstract

Abstract: The ToASt ASIC is a 64 channel integrated circuit designed for the readout of the double-sided silicon strip sensors that will equip the micro-vertex detector of the PANDA experiment. The ToASt ASIC operates with a 160 MHz clock, which defines also the time resolution. A common time stamp is distributed to all channels to provide a common time reference for time of arrival and time over threshold measurements. Two 160 Mb/s serial lines provide the interface to the data concentrator. ToASt is implemented in a commercial 110 nm CMOS technology with triplicated logic to protect against single event upsets.
