Many frameworks exist to ease the integration of FPGA based systems into the Instrumentation & Control systems that are required on Big Science facilities. We present a new approach, using the heterogeneous programming language OpenCL to design and develop acquisition and processing applications. This approach reduces the usage of HDL languages significantly to describe the hardware on the...

In the European XFEL (EuXFEL), the MicroTCA.4 platform hosts Advance Mezzanine Cards (AMCs) with FPGAs for data acquisition, processing and timing distribution. Communication with these devices, to configure, monitor and receive raw and process data, is done via PCI Express (PCIe) using a CPU AMC.
In some setups, FPGAs are not used for data acquisition but transmit information to devices...
