Performance of a remote High Voltage power supply for the Phase II upgrade of the ATLAS Tile Calorimeter

International audienceThe experience gained in the operation of the present High Voltage system of the Tile calorimeter in the ATLAS detector and the new HL-LHC constraints, in particular the increase of the radiation, lead to the proposal of changing the currently embedded regulation system to be a remote system in the counting room, by adding easily new functionalities. The system described in this note is using the same regulation scheme as the current one and distributes the individual High Voltage settings with 100 m long multi-conductor cables. The tests show that it reaches the same good performance in terms of regulation stability and noise, while allowing a permanent access to the electronics
