The Level 0 Trigger Decision Unit for the LHCb experiment

The Level 0 Decision Unit (L0DU) is one of the main components of the first trigger level (named level 0) of the LHCb experiment. This 16 layers custom board receives data from the calorimeter, muon and pile-up sub-triggers and computes the level 0 decision, reducing the rate from 40MHz to 1MHz. The...

description The Level 0 Decision Unit (L0DU) is one of the main components of the first trigger level (named level 0) of the LHCb experiment. This 16 layers custom board receives data from the calorimeter, muon and pile-up sub-triggers and computes the level 0 decision, reducing the rate from 40MHz to 1MHz. The processing is implemented in FPGA using a 40MHz synchronous pipelined architecture. The L0DU algorithm is fully configured via the Experiment Control System without any firmware reprogramming. An overall L0DU latency of less than 450ns has been achieved. The board was installed in the experimental area in April 2007 and since then has played a major role in the commissioning of the experiment.
