We present a method of embedding a Monolithic Active Pixel Sensor (MAPS) into a flexible printed circuit board (FPC) and its interconnection by means of through-hole copper plating. The resulting assembly, baptised ‘‘MAPS foil’’, is a flexible, light, protected, and fully integrated detector module. By using widely available printed circuit board manufacturing techniques, the production of these devices can be scaled easily in size and volume, making it a compelling candidate for future large-scale applications.

Abstract
We present a method of embedding a Monolithic Active Pixel Sensor (MAPS) into a flexible printed circuit board (FPC) and its interconnection by means of through-hole copper plating. The resulting assembly, baptised ‘‘MAPS foil’’, is a flexible, light, protected, and fully integrated detector module. By using widely available printed circuit board manufacturing techniques, the production of these devices can be scaled easily in size and volume, making it a compelling candidate for future large-scale applications. A first series of prototypes that embed the ALPIDE chip has been produced, functionally tested, and shown to be working.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
