Description
GSI is a particle physics research institute located in Darmstadt, Germany. At the same location, a new accelerator facility called FAIR (Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research) is currently under construction.
Our beam instrumentation department is using MicroTCA systems for measuring beam parameters like position, intensity and profile, for accurate timing control, for measuring voltages and for control applications.
The focus of the presentation will lie on the different FPGA Mezzanine Cards (FMCs) (Open Hardware, commercial and self-developed) that we use together with AMC FMC carriers in our custom data acquisition and control systems.
