The CDF silicon vertex detector is being upgraded for use in Run II of the Fermilab collider. The increased luminosity in Run II, coupled with the desire for increased acceptance and secondary vertex triggering, necessitates a complete redesign of the previous generation tracker. Details of the design are described.
