During the first long shutdown of the LHC from 2013 to 2014, the central components of the PreProcessor, the Multichip Modules, were replaced by upgraded versions that feature modern ADC and FPGA technology to ensure optimal performance in the high pile-up environment of LHC Run 2. This paper describes the features of the newMultichip Modules along with the improvements to the signal processing achieved.}, organization = {ANPCyT}, organization = {YerPhI, Armenia}, organization = {Australian Research Council}, organization = {BMWFW, Austria}, organization = {Austrian Science Fund (FWF)}, organization = {Azerbaijan National Academy of Sciences (ANAS)}, organization = {SSTC, Belarus}, organization = {National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq)}, organization = {Fundacao de Amparo a Pesquisa do Estado de Sao Paulo (FAPESP)}, organization = {Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada}, organization = {Canada Foundation for Innovation}, organization = {National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC)}, organization = {Departamento Administrativo de Ciencia, Tecnología e Innovación Colciencias}, organization = {Ministry of Education, Youth & Sports - Czech Republic Czech Republic Government}, organization = {Czech Republic Government}, organization = {DNRF, Denmark}, organization = {Danish Natural Science Research Council}, organization = {Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS)}, organization = {CEA-DRF/IRFU, France}, organization = {Federal Ministry of Education & Research (BMBF)}, organization = {Max Planck Society}, organization = {Greek Ministry of Development-GSRT}, organization = {RGC and Hong Kong SAR, China}, organization = {Israel Science Foundation}, organization = {Benoziyo Center, Israel}, organization = {Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare (INFN)}, organization = {Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, Japan (MEXT)}, organization = {Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, Japan (MEXT) Japan Society for the Promotion of Science}, organization = {CNRST, Morocco}, organization = {RCN, Norway}, organization = {Portuguese Foundation for Science and Technology}, organization = {MNE/IFA, Romania}, organization = {MES of Russia}, organization = {MESTD, Serbia}, organization = {MSSR, Slovakia}, organization = {Slovenian Research Agency - Slovenia}, organization = {MIZS, Slovenia}, organization = {Spanish Government}, organization = {SRC, Sweden}, organization = {Wallenberg Foundation, Sweden}, organization = {SNSF Geneva, Switzerland}, organization = {Ministry of Science and Technology, Taiwan}, organization = {Ministry of Energy & Natural Resources - Turkey}, organization = {Science & Technology Facilities Council (STFC)}, organization = {United States Department of Energy (DOE)}, organization = {National Science Foundation (NSF)}, organization = {BCKDF, Canada}, organization = {CANARIE, Canada}, organization = {CRC, Canada}, organization = {European Research Council (ERC)}, organization = {European Union (EU)}, organization = {French National Research Agency (ANR)}, organization = {German Research Foundation (DFG)}, organization = {Alexander von Humboldt Foundation}, organization = {Greek NSRF, Greece}, organization = {BSF-NSF, Israel}, organization = {German-Israeli Foundation for Scientific Research and Development}, organization = {La Caixa Banking Foundation, Spain}, organization = {CERCA Programme Generalitat de Catalunya, Spain}, organization = {PROMETEO, Spain}, organization = {GenT Programmes Generalitat Valenciana, Spain}, organization = {Goran Gustafssons Stiftelse, Sweden}, organization = {Royal Society of London}, organization = {Leverhulme Trust}, organization = {NRC, Canada}, organization = {CERN}, organization = {ANID, Chile}, organization = {Chinese Academy of Sciences}, organization = {Ministry of Science and Technology, China}, organization = {SRNSFG, Georgia}, organization = {HGF, Germany}, organization = {Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research (NWO) Netherlands Government}, organization = {Ministry of Science and Higher Education, Poland}, organization = {NCN, Poland}, organization = {NRCKI, Russia Federation}, organization = {JINR}, organization = {DST/NRF, South Africa}, organization = {SERI, Geneva, Switzerland}, organization = {Cantons of Bern and Geneva, Switzerland}, organization = {Compute Canada, Canada}, organization = {Horizon 2020}, organization = {Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions}, organization = {European Cooperation in Science and Technology (COST)}, organization = {EU-ESF, Greece}, publisher = {IOP Publishing LTD}, keywords = {Calorimeters}, keywords = {Trigger concepts and systems (hardware and software)}, title = {Performance of the upgraded PreProcessor of the ATLAS Level-1 Calorimeter Trigger}, doi = {10.1088/1748-0221/15/11/P11016}, author = {Aad, G. and Aguilar Saavedra, Juan Antonio}, }
