A Fixed-Frequency-Trigger Veto for the ATLAS SCT

Dangerous mechanical resonances exist which can lead to the breaking of bond wires if time varying currents are passed through them in a magnetic field. A fixed frequency trigger veto algorithm, designed to minimise the dangers of breaking wire bonds, and its implementation are described. Tests demo...

Sumario:Dangerous mechanical resonances exist which can lead to the breaking of bond wires if time varying currents are passed through them in a magnetic field. A fixed frequency trigger veto algorithm, designed to minimise the dangers of breaking wire bonds, and its implementation are described. Tests demonstrate the effectiveness of the solution and show minimal interference during normal triggering.
