Session 8
- Axel Winter (Herr)
The MicroTCA is a key platform at the European X-Ray Free Electron Laser facility (European XFEL), being at the centre of timing distribution, data processing from large 2D detectors, fast digitization and processing of pulse signals as well as low latency communication protocol for VETO and Machine Protection Systems.
Following on our internal review from last year, we focus on integrating...
The Lodz University of Technology, Department of Microelectronics and Computer Science is involved in the development of MicroTCA.4, MicroTCA.4.1 and the future standards from 2007 onwards. Since that time, we have developed various MicroTCA.4 components including Intelligent Platform Management, Advanced Mezzanine Cards (AMCs), Rear Transition Modules (RTMs) for data acquisition and...
Universal, scalable image acquisition system based on MTCA.4 standard designed and developed by the Department of Microelectronics and Computer Science in Lodz University of Technology is constantly being expanded with support for new cameras and interfaces. For more than 10 years we have been collaborating with several research institutions like ITER, W7X, DESY to collect requirements and...
In my presentation I will give an overview of MTCA hardware, which is relevant for photon science experiments. I will show commercially available products and new developments including the new motion controller. By showing possible applications for PETRA-IV I will point out the advantages of MTCA.
