14. Overview of DMCS Projects and MicroTCA.4 Developments

Prof. Dariusz Makowski (Lodz University of Technology)

02/12/2025, 16:30

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...

20. Engineering Challenges in Scaling MicroTCA for High-Power Double Full-Size AMC Configurations

Christian Ganninger (nVent SCHROFF)

02/12/2025, 16:45

Several companies engaged in the development and construction of quantum computers have adopted MicroTCA as the platform for their control systems, taking advantage of the proven architecture and ecosystem established within the MTCA.4 community. A significant number of these implementations utilize the Double Full-Size AMC form factor to provide increased front panel area and to enable the...

30. New building blocks and uplink solutions with the NAT-MCH

Heiko Körte (N.A.T.)

02/12/2025, 17:00

The NAT-MCH is successfully serving MicroTCA applications and appliances around the world for more than 19 years now.

However, today’s demands from the markets are very diverse as they do not only include request for simplified and easy-to-work-with solutions. The requirements also include fast and low-latency interconnects as well as increased connectivity to systems beyond the MicroTCA...

6. Custom data acquisition using FMCs and MicroTCA

René Geißler

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...

39. Libera Brilliance X: MTCA.4 Readout Electronics for Electron Synchrotrons.

Peter Paglovec (Instrumentation Technologies)

02/12/2025, 17:30

Within the PETRA IV project at DESY, a new high-resolution Beam Position Monitor (BPM) system based on MTCA.4 technology is being developed to meet the stringent requirements of the low-emittance lattice. Building on the successful prototype phase, the system has now been introduced under the commercial name Libera Brilliance X, a new member of Instrumentation Technologies’ Libera family. The...
