Abstract

KPiX is a 1,024 channel "System on a Chip" intended for bump bonding to large area Si sensors, enabling low multiple scattering Si strip tracking and high density Particle Flow calorimetry for SiD at the International Linear Collider (ILC). It may be used for hadronic calorimetry readout with RPC\´s or GEM\´s, and with a scintillator-based muon system using SiPM\´s. An electromagnetic calorimeter prototype will be beam-tested in early 2013.
