Abstract

We present the test results of the ABCN-25 front end chip implemented in CMOS 0.25 μm technology and optimised for the short, 2.5 cm, silicon strips intended to be used in the upgrade of the ATLAS Inner Detector. We have obtained the full functionality of the readout part, the expected performance of the analogue front-end and the operation of the power control circuits. The performance is evaluated in view of the minimization of the power consumption, as the upgrade detector may contain up to 70 million of channels. System tests with different power distribution schemes proposed for the future tracker detectors are possible with this chip. The ABCN-25 ASIC is now serving as the prototype readout chip in the developments of the modules and staves for the upgrade of the ATLAS Inner Detector.
