Status of the Level-0 ATLAS barrel muon trigger for High-Luminosity LHC

The Muon Spectrometer of the ATLAS detector will be substantially modified during the Phase-II Upgrade to cope with the higher particle rates and radiation levels of the High-Luminosity LHC. The entire trigger and readout electronics of the Resistive Plates Chambers will be replaced. The Resistive Plate Chambers' hit data will be collected by on-detector Data Transmitter and Collector boards and will be sent off-detector to the Sector Logic boards, which will perform the Level-0 barrel muon trigger algorithm and the readout logic. This contribution presents the design of the Phase-II barrel muon trigger and data acquisition system and the development of the barrel Sector Logic board firmware and its challenges.
