Abstract

The readout server (ROS), which constitutes the second level of the CMS drift tubes (DT) subdetector readout architecture, is a complex VME 9U board, currently placed in the CMS cavern, in the racks on one side of the detector wheels. The planned upgrade of DT electronics for 2013-2014 includes the relocation of all the second level of readout and trigger electronics in the CMS counting room, allowing among others, the future redesign of a higher performance ROS board based on commercial devices with no radiation tolerance requirements.
