Abstract:Abstract-The clock and control (CC) system for the EuXFEL megapixel detectors consists of a multi-purpose MTCA.4 AMC card with a Xilinx FPGA and a custom designed Rear Transition Module (RTM) which provides the CC functionality. The system resides in a MTCA.4 crate with the Timing Receiver (TR) board and synchronises the DAQ system to the general EuXFEL timing. This paper presents the experiences with the prototype system in addition to describing the RTM hardware and the CC system firmware in detail. The test… Show more
