- Holger Schlarb (MSK (Strahlkontrollen))
To keep the MicroTCA standard viable over many years it must follow the development of technology. A PICMG working group was formed to incorporate faster Ethernet and PCIe communication into the standard. This talk will discuss the direction and challenges of the next generation MicroTCA standard.
After more than 15 years and the 3rd MCH generation being currently deployed, the next generation 4 MCH is will become available soon, providing new features and functions. N.A.T will explain how to transit from today’s MCH to the 4th generation MCH and what the differences and benefits are. Also, the new generation MCH is designed to meet the upcoming requirements addressed by the next...
During last months PICMG mTCA-NG working group carried out channel signal-integrity simulations to find out whether 100GBASE-KR4 Ethernet and PCIe Gen4 and Gen5 are realizable on the mTCA platform. This presentation is intended to give an overview of the work carried out. The structure of the simulated channels and the models will be presented here. In addition, it will be shown how the...
The FPGA Mezzanine Cards (FMCs) are commonly used in various industrial and scientific projects. FMCs are also often used as a modular extension of Advanced Mezzanine Cards (AMCs) in MicroTCA.4 systems.
PICMG (PCI Industrial Computer Manufacturers Group) standard organization is currently working on the extended specification supporting management of FMC modules in MicroTCA.4 systems.
Some...
