First measurements on the Timespot1 ASIC: a fast-timing, high-rate pixel-matrix front-end

This work presents the first measurements performed on Timespot1 ASIC. As second prototype developed for TimeSPOT project, ASIC features a 32x32 channels hybrid-pixel matrix. Targeted to space-time tracking applications in High Energy Physics experiments, system aims achieve time resolution of 30 ps or better at maximum event rate 3 MHz per channel with Data Driven interface. Power consumption can be programmed range between $1.2W/cm^{2}$ and $2.6W/cm^{2}$. The presented results include description operation characterization its performance terms resolution.
