Difference: AMC13FirmwareDevelopment (1 vs. 7)

Test Firmware

Current AMC13 firmware as of 20 Jan 2012 supports TTC distribution plus demonstration DAQ link transmit/receive capability at 5.0Gb/sec from SFP0 to SFP1.]

Register list and description for this firmware is here: AMC13spec.txt

• MMC v1p2 Firmware with updates for Vadatech MCH

• CACTUS repository for IPbus etc

• MMC v1p1 Firmware by T. Gorski 2011-10-26
• Linux commands for IPMI control by T. Gorski 2011-10-26
• MMC IPMI functions in C by T. Gorski 2011-10-26

1.  TTC clock / signal distribution, with receiver logic for MiniCTR2B
     (this is maybe already done from last year?)

2.  DAQ data path (backplane readout)
     a)  output to SDRAM spy buffer for IPMI and/or Ethernet readout
     b)  output to optical fiber link (to Xilinx evaluation board, initially)

3.  Trigger path
     Align TP in AMC13 based on BC0, simple trigger algorithm
     Output via TTC SFP fiber at 160Mb/s using TTC protocol

4.  Control/monitoring
     a)  using interface to MMC (SPI or whatever)
     b)  Ethernet using IPbus
          (documentation here: http://projects.hepforge.org/cactus/index.php)
     I suggest that the same set of registers be accessible by Ethernet and SPI

5.  Flash memory programming over Ethernet
