/ Abstract
Depleted monolithic active pixel sensors (DMAPS), which exploit high voltage and/or high resistivity add-ons of modern CMOS technologies to achieve substantial depletion in the sensing volume, have proven to have high radiation tolerance towards the requirements of ATLAS in the high-luminosity LHC era. Depleted fully monolithic CMOS pixels with fast readout architectures are currently being developed as promising candidates for the outer pixel layers of the future ATLAS Inner Tracker, which will be installed during the phase II upgrade of ATLAS around year 2025. In this work, two DMAPS prototype designs, named LF-MonoPix and TJ-MonoPix, are presented. LF-MonoPix was designed and fabricated in the LFoundry 150~nm CMOS technology, and TJ-MonoPix has been designed in the TowerJazz 180~nm CMOS technology. Both chips employ the same readout architecture, i.e. the column drain architecture, whereas different sensor implementation concepts are pursued. The design of the two prototypes will be described. First measurement results for LF-MonoPix will also be shown.
