Session 4: MTCA applications in research and industry
In the framework of the European XFEL project, hardware, firmware and software has been developed for high-precision RF controls. It is cost optimized for the processing of a large number of superconducting RF cavities operated at frequencies of 1.3GHz or 3.9GHz.
We present here cost and performance optimized MTCA.4 LLRF system architectures dedicated for single NRF/SRF cavity controls...

Session 4: MTCA applications in research and industry
Many experiments require a digitization of short signals. The DRS-4 chip provides 9 capacitive pipelines of 1000 cells each for sampling analog signals with a frequency of up to 5 GHz. Upon a trigger the pipelines are digitized at lower frequency. We are currently designing a 16-channels waveform digitizing module based on four DRS-4 chips. Two pipelines are reserved per input channel to...

Session 4: MTCA applications in research and industry
High-speed low-latency cameras are used in various physics experiments and industrial processes. The imaging devices provide vast amount of data, that may be used for diagnostics, control and interlock systems. The highest speed video cameras require high bandwidth for data transmission and are usually equipped with Camera Link interface. Single imaging device can generate streams reaching up...

Session 4: MTCA applications in research and industry
The MTCA.4 is a new standard for control and monitoring systems which gains popularity in many leading High Energy Physics (HEP) experiments around the world. It has been chosen as a new architecture standard for upcoming European X-Ray Free Electron Laser (E-XFEL). The part of control electronics of the new accelerator will be situated next to the main beam pipe and exposed to parasitic gamma...

Session 4: MTCA applications in research and industry
Data acquisition is one of the most common tasks performed by electronic systems used by HEP experiments. Existing systems vary in terms of used hardware and software components, but their high level functionality is the same. Universal framework introduces additional abstraction layers to create hardware/software independent interfaces. This allows to reuse the same firmware and software...
