Extensive tests of silicon sensors, CMOS readout chips, and complete modules have to be performed after each production step to ensure high quality. With 66'560 pixels per module and 350 modules, testing speed and and data management are an issue. The test procedures are being developed now and a student with interest in computer-based hardware testing could contribute here. Knowledge of C++ and Unix are an asset.
