Abstract
The CMS ECAL barrel electronics will be upgraded for the HL-LHC to meet the latency and bandwidth requirements of the Phase-II Level-1 trigger system. The new front-end electronics will mitigate the increasing noise from the avalanche photodiodes (APDs), discriminate against anomalous APD signals and provide improved timing information. The foreseen solution is to replace the current Charge-Sensitive-Amplifier with a Trans-Impedance Amplifier, which should provide the extra bandwidth needed to maintain the integrity of the detector signal shape.

The first ASIC prototype, called CATIA, has been successfully designed in TSMC 130 nm CMOS technology and its test results will be presented.
