Oral

A plug-in module has been built for reception of optically transmitted data by gigabit applications. The optical receiving module is based on a 12-channel optical receiver and an FPGA with embedded deserializers. It is compatible with the G-Link and Gigabit Ethernet compliant serializer ASIC (GOL) used by many LHC systems. Due to its compact design, several of these modules...

108. PCI Express Over Optical Links for Data Acquisition and Control

Andrea Triossi (Sez. INFN di Padova Italy)

Oral

PCI Express is a new I/O technology for desktop, mobile, server and communications platforms designed to allow increasing levels of computer system performance. The serial nature of its links and the packet based protocols allows an easy geographical decoupling of a peripheral device. We have investigated the possibility of using an optical physical layer for the PCI Express,...

13. Status of the TTC upgrade

Sophie BARON (CERN)

Triggering

Oral

The TTC (Timing, Trigger and Control) system broadcasts the timing signals from the LHC machine to the experiments. Once at the detector level, it integrates the trigger information and local synchronous commands with these signals, for transmission to several thousands of destinations. The equipment for this second part of the system is fully produced, but the main network between...

28. On the development of the final optical multiplexer board prototype for the TileCal experiment

Vicente Gonzalez Millan (Dep. Ingeniería Electrónica - Univ. Valencia)

27/09/2006, 15:30

Oral

This presentation aims to describe the architecture of the final optical multiplexer board (also known as preROD) for the TileCal experiment. The results of the first VME 6U prototype have led to the definition of the final block diagram and functionality of this prototype. Functional description of constituent blocks and the state of the work currently undergoing at the...
