Within the EUDET framework package JRA3, the concept of an analog hadronic calorimeter (AHCAL) for the International Linear Collider (ILC) based on scintillating tiles and silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) has been developed. The concept has been validated by the realization of the three main deliverables of the HCAL work package, namely the mechanical, stainless steel absorber structure, the basic unit of the integrated inner detector electronics including the interface electronics to the data acquisition; and a suitable channel-wise calibration and gain monitoring system for the SiPMs based on LEDs. Measurement results obtained with the realized prototypes confirm the suitability of the developed concept for an application as ILC calorimeter, achieving a high granularity and compactness. The final generation of the modules will be used to set up a ~2500 channel prototype, addressing among others the important aspect of power-pulsing to avoid the warm-up of the calorimeter structure.
