In this test beam, we tested various tuning configurations of a single CROC module to study in detail the calibration of the ToT response of individual pixels to the charge released by a MIP.
We then retested the first TEPX quad module for comparative measurements after performing some stress tests and thermal cycles in the laboratory.

Season's greetings

Wow, Christmas feelings even at the testbeam:
Whilst working until last week we accidentally discovered that the Sourcemeter is capable of "singing" with us. The beep function is mostly used to give a signal at the end of a measurement. But it can give a christmassy break at the experiment, too. We...

Last test beam of the year: running faster than ever!

Exciting weeks at the test beam! Graphite bridges, sped up data taking, freezing temperatures for our pixel modules and a lot of clever hacking.
Nothing could stop us in our quest to determine the spatial resolution of the next generation of hybrid pixel detectors for CMS!
