【 摘 要 】

After two years of operation of the LHC, the ATLAS Tile calorimeter is undergoing a consolidation process of its front-end electronics. The certification is performed in the experimental area with a portable test-bench which is capable of controlling and reading out one front-end module through dedicated cables. This test-bench has been redesigned to improve the tests of the electronics functionality quality assessment of the data until the end of Phase I.
