Upgrade of CMS LHC beam pickup logic

Not scheduled
20m

Description

The beam pickup signals are processed at the CMS experiment at CERN by a programmable logic board programmed in VHDL. Coincidences between the signals from clockwise and counterclockwise beams are formed and provided to the CMS trigger logic. This project will reimplement the logic on a modern Cyclone V based FPGA and verify its operation by simulating LHC bunch patterns. Additional monitoring and readout capabilities will be developed.

Special Qualifications:

Some experience in electronics and FPGA programming desirable.
