Session 4
- Tobias Hoffmann (Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung GSI GmbH)
The presentation will describe a conceptional approach, how MTCA could be used in industrial applications, it will also show methods to optimize costs per system.
It will highlight concepts for optimized system with basic functions and ease of operations. Existing AMC products can be used within those systems.
The low jitter clock multiplexer 8V54816ANLG from Renesas (ex. IDT) is a well recognized silicon used with many applications in science and industry whenever the clock distribution inside a MicroTCA system requires maximum flexibility regarding multiple possible clock sources and the ability to switch among these at run-time.
Its end of life with a last time buy date in 2023 and the fact...
In the past years many MPSoC-based AMCs have been released in order to replace old FPGA-based AMC boards. The presence of Processing System and Programmable Logic on the same chip offers the syncrothron users several advantages but it can also hold back the development and operation of new projects due to its complex architecture.
This contribution aims to present some of the many possible...
MicroTCA systems are no “island solutions”: one typical requirement is to send data acquired by an MicroTCA system to an external server or any other compute platform along with providing precision timing information to the world external to a MicroTCA system.
On the one hand, Ethernet is the de-facto standard to communicate with the server or PC domain. On the other hand Ethernet is a...
KVG Quartz Crystal Technology GmbH is a professional frequency control products manufacturer, focusing on research, development, production and sales. High-end crystal oscillators are our specialty. We work together with DESY for the production and test of the DeRTM-LOG module and in the near future also for Master Oscillator (MO) module. The DeRTM-LOG is a MicroTCA.4 compliant and a...
The new SIS8172 FMC carrier in MicroTCA.4 form factor is a versatile digital I/O board, which was developed with a variety of accelerator controls and beam instrumentation applications in mind. While the quad SFP+ front panel interface can be used for inter-crate and long-distance point to point communication, most use cases will employ the Zone 3 D1.0 interface to interface to custom rear...
