Special diagnostic applications in the European-XFEL require a compact and cost efficient digitizer for sampling single-ended AC/DC coupled high speed signals directly. Analog mixer stages in front of the ADC boards are expensive and need a lot of space in the MTCA.4 crates of the accelerator control system. Therefore, DESY is developing a new digitizer board based on a 12-bit dual channel ADC...

New products and developements
Many high order modes can be excited in RF cavities by the electron beam passing through. They can be used to study beam properties such as charge, position and timing. The detection electronics presented in the talk is realized in a MicroTCA.4 compatible RTM form factor. The RTM can monitor 8 channels in parallel. In each channel we intend to monitor the dipole mode at 1.7 GHz and the 1.3 and...

New products and developements
At DESY a cost effective, MTCA.4 based system for the control of accelerator magnets is being developed. Main components are a CPU card based on a ZYNQ SoC, up to 10 high-precision Analog -I/O modules with ADCs and DACs and a dedicated backplane. The CPU card supports the basic requirements of MTCA.4: a PCIe root complex, Ethernet, MLVDS, uRTM and IPMI interfaces, and can be used as CPU unit...

Application in research facilities and industry
The MicroTCA.4 technology has limitations concerning the consumed power and heat generated in a single chassis slot. The power limit of 80 Watts concerns both Advanced Mezzanine Card (AMC) and Rear Transition Module (RTM) devices. Therefore, design of control devices consuming significant power is challenging.
The presentation will discuss the issues concerning the design of two-channel...

New products and developements
The MicroTCA board DRTM-PZT4 is a 4-channel piezo driver RTM board and is currently used in many scientific installations.
Since it generates +-100V high voltage on board, it falls into a category where product safety is a major concern for commercialization.
In order to analyze potential risks DESY seeked the help of a professional company. During the process the board was re-designed to...
