DCD is implemented in UMC 0.18 um CMOS technology
3.2mm x 5mm
DCD-B uses bump bonding on the UMC technology provided by EuroPractice.
DCD has 256 analog channels each housing an input stage and ADCs (1 pipeline or 2 cyclic).

The analog input stage performs various tasks.
Keeps voltage constant, amplification, shaping, CM correction, pedestal correction
The analog signal is digitized using current-mode cyclic or pipelined ADCs
A large synthesized digital block decodes and derandomizes the ADC raw data which are then
transmitted in a well sorted sequence to the DHP chips using fast parallel 8-bit digital outputs.

Current-receiver based on a trans-impedance amplifier with a resistor on its output that amplifies
the DEPFET current.
Two current-mode cyclic ADCs (ADCR and ADCL) based on current-memory cells (CMC).
Two-bit DAC for pedestal correction.
Decoder for generating of the control signals for the ADC.

The hearth of the block is a trans-impedance amplifier
A ”bleeding resistor” Rs is connected between Vout and the input of the ADC. Since the ADC
holds its input at a constant potential, the current flowing into the ADC is proportional to Iin
The amplifier can operate in the mode to suppress common mode variations and amplify only the
difference from the common mode signal.
Novel voltage-drop insensitive current sources with enclosed NMOS transistors have been used
for sensible currents like ISF

Single-Input Amplifier
•
•
The single input amplifier is not able to distinguish between signal and crosstalk
Amplifier bandwidth quite high ~ 100Mhz/2
5cm
Crosstalk sources:
Switching of DEPFET rows
Fluctuations in power supply voltages
EM environment
Assumption: crosstalk affects all channels equally – “common mode noise”

Problem: DEPFET signal is not differential.
Idea: feed two DEPFET signals to a differential amplifier.
Drawback: double hits are not amplified.

Idea: extend the differential scheme to n inputs. The inputs are connected
to n DEPFET rows.

The amplifier amplifies the difference from the mean value.
In the case of large n, the mean value is not influenced by single hits.
Behaves as the single input amplifier for the case of sparse signals.

The ADC uses redundant signed-digit (RSD) conversion.
The algorithm starts with the comparison of the input signal with two thresholds, one positive and
one negative.
If the input signal is larger than the positive threshold, the pair of output code bits is set to 10,
meaning +1, and a reference current is
subtracted.
If the input signal is lower than the negative threshold, the output code is set to 01 (-1) and the
reference is added.
If the input signal value is between the thresholds, the bits are set to 00 (0) and no arithmetical
operation is carried out.
The residue signal is multiplied by two and the result undergoes the same operation for the next
bits.
The conversion is not inuenced by the comparator osets, providing the osets are not larger than
half of the threshold.
Current-mode memory cells are used to implement the described A/D conversion algorithm.

TCUM1 first implementation of the cyclic ADC based on current memory cells (CMC) – too slow
and too large
TCUM3 improved (for speed) implementation of the cyclic and pipelined ADC with CMCs – too
large
DCD1 72-channel readout chip for DEPFET – small cyclic ADCs (2/channel) and regulated
cascode as receiver – 80ns sampling time and proper size – too high noise due to crosstalk
DCD2 – fixed crosstalk problem (constant current consumption) – INL ~3.5 in some channels and
noise ~50nA at 100ns sampling time
DCDB1 256-channel chip with Belle II size – cyclic ADCs from DCD2 and transimpedance
amplifers – works but noise a bit high at 100ns sampling time (120nA)
DCDB2 – noise improved ~ 60nA at full speed – INL about 4 LSB in some channels
DCDB4 cyclic – improved DCDB2 not tested yet
DCDB pipelined – noise ~ 45nA at full speed – INL about 2.5 LSB (sometimes some channels
have long codes)
We believe, the problem has been understood and can be solved by resizing of transistors
Still to be decided – should we use cyclic or pipelined version or both
We need more measurements
