Low mass tapes   for ATLAS SCT detector (Ljubljana ATLAS group)

Low mass tapes are flexible circuits  used to bring power and some control signals to the silicon module.  From the barrel  module - opto flex circuit to the patch panel (PP1) 50 microns thick Al is used as a conductor due to the requirement to have minimum scattering  in the SCT detector, while 35 micron copper is used as conductor forward modules. Aluminum  has 4 times better conductivity than copper at the same scattering length (see the material estimate ). Al tapes  with 100 microns thick Al were considered  in PP1 - PP2 region, however now thin  conventional cables  are a baseline.  Low mass tapes will supply  modules with necessary voltages for chip and detector operation, as well as with some control levels. It is foreseen to have one low mass tape per module.  Tapes  are  custom made by photolithography of aluminum  on the kapton substrate.  Al tapes were  made at ELGOLINE on 30 cm wide tape process and their design should allow large surface yield. 250 mm process was used for Cu tapes.

PP1B-V71     - version with holes for thermode solder rework

PP1B-V6Z

PP1B-V6Z is multilayer board (with 8 layers of conductors) accepting low mass tapes
from the barrel harness (6 tapes) and conventional cables from the power supply side.
It provides filtering of noise with same electrical layout as PP1V5.3. Top and bottom
layer (plane) conductors are connected to the shield.

     DESIGN for the 2000 system test:

    May 1999 version of low mass tape was not in agreement with IPC -2223 standard which requires 2.5 mm spacing for 500V bias voltage.  Also few lines have been changed. Therefore  the  design 2000  of low mass cable for system test June 2000  is used.
