The DESY DAMC-FMC1Z7IO is a cost-optimised IO controller and processing board in AMC formfactor with a front panel site for FMC modules.
The module features a ZYNQ-7000 SOC that makes the AMC a networked computer node with extensive application capability.
Now manufactured under license by D-TACQ Solutions, DAMC-FMC1Z7IO also supports an MTCA.4 RTM with Z3 D1.0 signaling.
This allows the...
Getting a new type of AMC up and running usually has a significant entry barrier.
Especially for unfamiliar boards it is important to have a reliable tool chain ready to have a smooth start.
The ChimeraTK framework provides libraries and tools that cover the whole range from first communication and configuration of the board to full application development with integration to DOOCS, EPICS,...
DESY is currently planning to upgrade the third generation synchrotron light source PETRA III to a state of the art diffraction limited storage ring.
The new machine PETRA IV will make use of MTCA not only for the accelerator itself but also for the photon science experiments.
In my presentation I will show possible applications of MTCA for experiment control and data acquisition at photon...
