Test stands for the central drift chamber front end hybrid in the Stanford Linear Collider Detector

摘要

The central drift chamber (CDC) of the SLAC Linear Collider Detector (SLD) uses 1280 front-end electronic hybrid modules. Each of these modules contains over 450 components and performs numerous functions. The four test stands for production and detailed circuit characterizations of these hybrids are described, as well as the performance of some of the important functions of the test systems.
