Global Trigger Technological Demonstrator for ATLAS Phase-II upgrade

ATLAS detector at the LHC will undergo a major Phase-II upgrade for the High Luminosity LHC. The upgrade affects all major ATLAS systems, including the Trigger and Data Acquisition systems. As part of the Level-0 Trigger System, the Global Trigger uses full-granularity calorimeter cells to perform algorithms, refines the trigger objects and applies topological requirements. The Global Trigger uses a Global Common Module as the building block of its design. To achieve a high input and output bandwidth and substantial processing power, the Global Common Module will host the most advanced FPGAs and optical modules. In order to evaluate the new generation of optical modules and FPGAs running at…
