In recent years, DESY has dedicated significant effort to the development of an open-source FPGA framework named FWK. This initiative is geared towards expediting FPGA development within the scientific community, with a particular focus on experimental physics applications. The framework functions as an abstraction layer, streamlining the utilization of diverse FPGA vendor tools, facilitating...
Electrical measurements of fast signals, as generated in particle accelerators, encounter severe limitations due to the high-frequency losses in RF transmission lines. This study describes measurements conducted with electro-optical modulators employing various radio-over-fibre techniques. Experimental data consist of different beam-generated signals, which underline the versatility of such a...
A new digital signal acquisition and processing platform for beam instruments at IMP is designed and realized based on Zynq MPSoC FPGA. Two FMC mezzanine slots are featured for analogue front-end electronics and analogue-to-digital converting, as well as for the WR timing. The real-time data communication between different platforms is realized through multi-gigabit links. To facilitate the...
