The R&D work reported in this paper has been devoted to the production and test of pixelated resistive micromegas detectors able to track particles in a high-rate environment, up to 10MHz/cm2, keeping a stable gain and a good spatial resolution. To pursue our goal, we had to reduce the occupancy by increasing the detector granularity and this has been done by changing the read-out anodes from the usual strips to pads. This minor change in the electrodes layout drastically increased the difficulty of implementing a resistive structure to protect the anodes from sparking. We present the results of the tests performed on four prototypes, with different protection schemes, showing it is possible to reach the desired rate with high gain, high efficiency and good position resolution. The response to X-rays from low (55Fe source) to high (X-rays generator) rates, as well as to beams of ionizing particles is reported.
