Data Acquisition
Because of the complexity and the high startup cost of ATCA, initial PANDA DAQ development activities in Forschungszentrum Juelich concentrate on MicroTCA. MicroTCA provides a smooth path to ATCA, since MicroTCA boards can be reused in ATCA shelves by means of AMC carriers and all essential technological challenges, e.g. Management and high speed serial communication links on the backplane,...

Trigger
An ATCA telecommunication shelf provides power, cooling and high-speed interconnections to up to 14 PANDA Compute Nodes. A single Shelf Manager supervises the installed boards and regulates the power distribution and temperature inside the shelf. The Shelf Manager relies on a local controller on each Compute Node to relay sensor alerts, provide hardware information and power requirements etc....
