Description
Continuous Wave (CW) mode is becoming increasingly relevant for FELs, in contrast to a pulsed operation mode as it is currently done at the EuXFEL accelerator.
This transition requires a new approach to timing and data readout concepts. One potential solution involves using double-buffered memory in the firmware, with buffer swapping controlled by a timing system trigger. Initial developments using this approach have been carried out with a laser pulse energy measurement setup at the KALDERA facility at DESY.
The implementation is based on Struck SIS8300-KU ADC hardware, the DESY Firmware Framework, and ChimeraTK software. Integration with the DOOCS control system via the DOOCSDeviceAccess library will be presented.
