  1. The DØ Silicon Track Trigger • Introduction • Overview of STT • STT Hardware Design • Motherboard • Fiber Road Card • Silicon Trigger Card • Cluster Algorithm • Track Fit Card • Track Reconstruction Wendy Taylor IEEE NSS 2000 Lyon, France October 17, 2000

  2. Run II TeVatron • Fermilab, near Chicago USA • TeV collider • Bunch crossing time is 396 ns (eventually 132 ns) • Run II starts March 2001 • Expect of integrated luminosity in the first 2 years • DØ needs a trigger that • offers high reduction of backgrounds • allows efficient selection of rare process signatures • makes its decision fast (e.g., L2 has 100 s) IEEE NSS 2000

  8. Run II Physics at DØ • Decay signatures of top quark, Higgs boson, SUSY, and b quark include displaced tracks • Silicon Track Trigger identifies displaced tracks with high efficiency and purity in 25 s • STT will be installed one year after the start of Run II Impact parameter IEEE NSS 2000

  11. STT Motherboard • Logic cards share requirements for internal and external interfaces • Mount logic daughter cards on common motherboard • 9Ux400 mm VME64x-compatible • 3 33-MHz PCI busses for on-board communications • Data communicated between cards via point-to-point links (LVDS) • Control signals sent over backplane • VME bus used for Level 3 readout and initialization/monitoring IEEE NSS 2000

  12. STT Motherboard IEEE NSS 2000

  13. Initialization/Downloading • Crate controller • Motorola MVME2302 200 MHz CPU • Initializes STT cards at power-up • Downloads lookup tables and FPGA/DSP code to STT cards • Notifies destination card of download • Information (e.g., DSP code) read from host computer over Ethernet • Information passed across VME backplane through motherboard’s PCI bus to destination card • I/O controller on destination card transfers data to destination • Gathers information from other cards for monitoring purposes IEEE NSS 2000

  14. Fiber Road Card • Trigger receiver communicates with the trigger framework (SCL receiver card on motherboard) and broadcasts any control signals to the other cards (J3) • Road receiver receives tracks from the Level 1 CFT trigger • Trigger/roaddata formatter constructs the trigger/road data blocks and transmits this information to the other cards • Buffer manager handles buffering and readout to Level 3 • Implemented in 3 FPGAs IEEE NSS 2000

  15. centroid pulse height strip cluster Silicon Trigger Card • Bad strips are masked (LUT) • Pedestals/gains are calibrated (LUT) • Neighbouring SMT hits (axial or stereo) are clustered using FPGAs programmed in VHDL • Axial clusters are matched to ±1mm-wide roads around each CFT track via precomputed LUT IEEE NSS 2000

  16. Track Fit Card • Control logic (Altera FPGAs) maps each road to one of eight processors and handles I/O buffer management • Processor (TI DSP) receives 2 CFT hits and r- SMT clusters in road defined by CFT track • Lookup table used to convert hardware to physical coordinates • C program on DSP selects clusters closest to road center at each of 4 layers and performs a linearized track fit: IEEE NSS 2000

  17. Hit Filtering Algorithm CFT H layer • To optimize track-finding efficiency, track purity and execution time, look for hits in all four layers but allow hits in only three out of four layers 2-mm road CFT A layer SMT barrels IEEE NSS 2000

  18. Track Reconstruction • Formulate track equation in terms of hits (3 or 4 SMT + 2 CFT hits) • With 1 as reference, use  residuals in computation • near-zero  residuals allow use of integer arithmetic • Matrix is precomputed and stored in a lookup table IEEE NSS 2000

  19. Beam Spot Correction • Track parameters computed wrt detector origin (0,0) • Impact parameter relevant to physics measured wrt collision (i.e., beam spot) • Beam spot position downloaded to STT on a run-by-run basis • Impact parameter correction performed in DSP where is beam position • Beam spot offset tolerance is 1 mm, within Tevatron specs IEEE NSS 2000

  20. Performance • Impact parameter resolution of 35 m includes • beam spot size (30 m) • SMT resolution (15 m) • STT introduces negligible uncertainty to resolution • Monte Carlo calculation predicts 2 CFT tracks, 14 SMT clusters per sector and 3.7 clusters per track • Using above, queuing simulation predicts average STT latency is 25 s with negligible dead-time IEEE NSS 2000

  21. Conclusions • STT represents custom solution to DØ’s trigger requirements for Run II • Decision time is 25 s with negligible dead-time • Design of motherboard as well as logic cards well under way • Card prototypes ready in 3 months for testing • FPGA and DSP programming progressing • STT will be installed and running by March 2002 IEEE NSS 2000
