Applications in research facilities and industry
The ESS has adopted the MicroTCA.4 platform for the high speed FPGA-based applications because it is one of the most promising and innovative standards for high-speed data acquisition available for accelerator controls. Some different types of MicroTCA base systems will be selected to be deployed in the facility to provide the infrastructure needed for the different systems. A few COTS AMC...

We are planning to change the LLRF system of the SPring-8 storage ring from the current analog-circuit-based system into a modern digital one. We started the development of a MTCA.4-based system, as it is one of the best candidates for a new standard electronics platform at SPring-8. A prototype of the LLRF system was built, consisting of commercial MTCA.4 modules, such as AMCs (SIS8300L2,...

Applications in research facilities and industry
History and activities of MicroTCA at KEK facilities will be reviewed and features of low-level RF control system for SuperKEKB will be mainly presented.
SuperKEKB is a new upgrade project, which is aiming at 40-times higher luminosity than the KEKB, accordingly it requires much lower-emittance and higher-current beam storage. Accuracy and flexibility in accelerating field control are very...
