Description

More and more scientific facilities have been adopting MicroTCA.4 as the standard for new electronics. Despite the advertised advantages in terms of system manageability, high availability, backplane performance and supply of high quality COTS modules by industry, the standard still lacks a greater acceptance in the accelerators community. This contribution will report on a survey carried out among the MicroTCA.4 adopters in the accelerator community to probe the perceived strengths and weaknesses of the standard and its ecosystem at present days.
