• The super-module integration concept based on double-sided silicon strip modules has been developed for the future upgrade of the ATLAS detector. A super-module consists of 12 double-sided modules with 122880 readout strips in total. Since the number of readout strips becomes very large to keep the hit occupancy at an acceptable level, the data readout is one of the key issues. A SiTCP based DAQ system has been developed by using the Soi EvAluation BoArd with Sitcp (SEABAS). The SEABAS processes the data by means of an FPGA (User-FPGA) and transfers data to a computer via Ether-net with the SiTCP protocol, which is a hardware implementation of TCP/IP on a FPGA device, enabling it to achieve high speed data transfers. The firmware and software have been developed for the SEABAS together with the readout hardware chain, and the basic functionality for reading out the super-module has been established. ► The silicon strip super-module has been developed for the ATLAS detector upgrade. ► To read the super-module, a new readout system has been developed. ► The firmware and software were developed, together with the readout hardware chain. ► The DAQ system gave excellent results for the readout test.
