TTC Receiver

This page documents a TTC receiver developed for the HCAL DTC (a MicroTCA MCH). This receiver is unique in that it does not use the official TTCrx ASIC from CERN, but instead commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) components.

Please see:

• my slides from Oct 2010 where I describe the scheme in some detail.
• Reference Design including schematic, UCF and VHDL files (rev 2011-07-29)
• Older information:
  • Schematic Excerpts from AMC13 Module.
  • TTC_decoder.vhd preliminary VHDL code for receiving and decoding the TTC protocol, intended for use on an AMC module in a MicroTCA crate with DTC or AMC13 distributing TTC data on Fabric B
