Description
Availability modeling of the proposed International
Linear Collider predicts unacceptably low uptime with
current electronics systems designs. High Availability
(HA) analysis is being used as a guideline for all major
machine systems including sources, utilities, cryogenics,
magnets, power supplies, instrumentation and controls.
R&D teams are seeking to achieve total machine high
availability with nominal impact on system cost. The
focus of this paper is the investigation of commercial
standard HA architectures and packaging for
Accelerator Controls and Instrumentation. Application of
HA design principles to power systems and detector
instrumentation will also be discussed.
