Abstract

The upgrade of the acquisition for the muon Drift Tube foresees the relocation of the Sector Collector electronics, from the cavern towards the counting room. The project requires an electrical to optical conversion by the Copper to Optical Fibre (CUOF) board, developed and tested in a radiation environment for components qualification. More tests were performed inserting the prototype in the actual acquisition system, with such a good result that a substantial production is in progress. The installation for a large number of channels is planned for the 2013 autumn, with the new system that will be active beside the actual one.
