Abstract
The NA62 GigaTracker is a low mass time tagging hybrid pixel detector operating in a beam with a particle rate of 750 MHz. It consists of three stations with a sensor size of 60 × 27mm<sup>2</sup> containing 18000 pixels, each 300 × 300 μm<sup>2</sup>. The active area is connected to a matrix of 2 × 5 pixel ASICs, which time tag the arrival of the particles with a binning of 100 ps. The detector operates in vacuum at -20 to 0°C and the material budget per station must be below 0.5% X<inf>0</inf>. Due to the high radiation environment of 2 × 10<sup>14</sup> 1 MeV neutron equivalent cm<sup>-2</sup>/yr<sup>-1</sup> it is planned to exchange the detector modules regularly. The low material budget, cooling requirements and the request for easy module access has driven the electro-mechanical integration of the GigaTracker, which is presented in this paper. © 2010IOP Publishing Ltd and SISSA.
