Optimization of a readout board for mass assembly and light yield measurements with a cosmic ray test stand — •Phi Chau for the CALICE-D collaboration — Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz, Institut für Physik, Germany

We have built a readout board prototype, equipped with SiPMs, scintillators and readout electronics for an highly granular calorimeter. The design was optimized for mass assembly due to about 8 million channels in the final detector. The prototype showed good performance in several test beams and in a cosmic ray test stand, which was built to characterize the MIP response of these kinds of boards. We show an overview of the cosmic ray test stand and measurement results for the readout board and plans for an improved 2nd generation prototype.
