An SVX sector prototype was operated at Fermilab in a configuration very close to the version to be installed in CDF. The sparse readout features of the SVXD chip [1,2], which provide the local data compaction that is necessary to deal with the detector high number of channels (40K) and typical Tevatron luminosities, were tested for the first time with a 230 GeV/c pion beam. A good background rejection and high hit efficiency was demonstrated in this mode of operation, with adequate signal to noise ratio and spatial resolution.

Abstract
An SVX sector prototype was operated at Fermilab in a configuration very close to the version to be installed in CDF. The sparse readout features of the SVXD chip [1,2], which provide the local data compaction that is necessary to deal with the detector high number of channels (40K) and typical Tevatron luminosities, were tested for the first time with a 230 GeV/c pion beam. A good background rejection and high hit efficiency was demonstrated in this mode of operation, with adequate signal to noise ratio and spatial resolution.
