A 3D FPGA Track Segment Seeding Engine Based on the Tiny Triplet Finder

Conference ·
OSTI ID:1833303

A 3D track segment seeding engine core based on the Tiny Triplet Finder has been implemented and tested in a low-cost FPGA device. The seeding engine is designed to preselect and group hits (stubs) from cylindrical detector layers to feed subsequent track fitting stage. The seeding engine consists of a Hough transform space for r-z view and a Tiny Triplet Finder for r-phi view to implement 3D constraints. The seeding engine is organized as a pipeline so that each hit is processed in a single clock cycle. Test results show that the seeding engine operates as expected.
