Developing SoC and FPGA-based applications for MicroTCA AMC involves significant hardware costs. It requires a complete hardware ecosystem with a Chassis, an MCH, and one or several AMCs, presenting a steep learning curve for new developers.
This contribution presents the integration of two different cost-effective boards into DESY's FPGA Firmware Framework (FWK). The goal is to provide a...
In particle accelerator facilities, on-board flash memory is exposed to radiation that can cause bit corruption over time, making it preferable to load applications over the network rather than store them locally. This talk presents a method for flashless, network-based booting of MicroTCA Advanced Mezzanine Cards (AMCs) using U-Boot and standard network protocols. By loading the entire...
This talk gives an overview of the first steps into using the widely used IT infrastructure monitoring application Zabbix to remotely monitor and even maintain/control larger installations of MTCA (and PC/server) based hardware. The goal of this project is to utilize the standardized IPMI interface of the MTCA products in combination with the open source Zabbix software to build dashboards as...
The modern system on chip that can support your project via:
- integrated ADC and DAC for control and data acquisition
- array of massive compute DSP engines
- high speed data links and network on chip
The European Spallation Source will be the most powerful accelerator-based neutron source, and the standard chosen for the ESS Linear accelerator fast data acquisition systems is MicroTCA.
The ESS accelerator has a big set of different MicroTCA based systems: Machine Protection, Low Level RF, Beam Diagnostics, Motion systems based on Ethercat and more. Besides that, different models of CPUs...
