DESY Advanced Mezzanine Card DAMC1
Prototype of DAMC1 module
The first generation of the DESY AMC board (DAMC1) was designed as a demonstrator board to study and test the potential of the new µTCA standard, for control applications with analogue I/O. µTCA was originally developed for the Telecommunication industry as a standard for digital applications. The DAMC1 board is a single, mid-size, FPGA-based board, equipped with 256 Mbit of DDR2 memory.
Features
- Custom made interface to an I/O Mezzanine Card
- Support for 4 lanes of PCIe to the Backplane
- 1G Ethernet to the front panel
- implementation of the Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI).
Currently the DAMC1 boards are used in various fields in the control system of DESY’s FLASH accelerator. Examples are Beam Position Monitoring, control applications for Toroid and Kicker-magnets as well as for the Machine-Protection-System.
