Description
In low duty cycle machines, such as linear and muon colliders, collision happen only in a small fraction of the total operational time. Currently, most of the developments of Monolithic Active Pixel Sensor (MAPS) focus on circular colliders, with a continuous time analog front-end. In this contribution we propose a time-variant analog front-end, which, when operated synchronously with the accelerator, achieves a better timing performance/power metric. We report on the design, simulation and preliminary results obtained on a TPSCo 65 nm CMOS technology. We will also discuss system level issues and ongoing R&D efforts, in particular the development of a time-to-digital converter (TDC) to be integrated in the pixel matrix.
