First experimental results on Ignite0: A prototype pixel front-end ASIC with timing in 28 nm
This contribution presents the results of the first test activity on the Ignite-0 ASIC. The main challenge of this microelectronics development is to reach an overall time resolution of at least 50 ps, on a pixel front-end ASIC within the constraints defined by high-luminosity HEP experiments. Ignite-0 has been developed during 2023 in order to test individually the building blocks for the future developments on the front-end ASIC. It contains mainly the pixel front-end electronics such as the Analog Front-End and the Time to Digital Converter, but it also integrates various service blocks. All the integrated blocks have been designed to satisfy the desired requirements and constraints both in terms of power, performance and form-factor.
