abstract = {The upgrade of the ALICE TPC will allow the experiment to
cope with the high interaction rates foreseen for the
forthcoming Run 3 and Run 4 at the CERN LHC. In this
article, we describe the design of new readout chambers and
front-end electronics, which are driven by the goals of the
experiment. Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) detectors arranged
in stacks containing four GEMs each, and continuous readout
electronics based on the SAMPA chip, an ALICE development,
are replacing the previous elements. The construction of
these new elements, together with their associated quality
control procedures, is explained in detail. Finally, the
readout chamber and front-end electronics cards replacement,
together with the commissioning of the detector prior to
installation in the experimental cavern, are presented.
After a nine-year period of $R\&D,$ construction, and
assembly, the upgrade of the TPC was completed in 2020.},
