  1. What’s NEXTin the CO-FE room? AGM-2011 On behalf of CO/FEF.Locci- December 15th, 2011

  2. VME … What else ? • About 20 years that VMEBus was officially introduced as CO standard platform (PS/SL 1990 Controls renovation) • Over 1000 FECs deployed for operation including 550 PowerPC/LynxOS • From 2007, we faced with VME platform obsolescence in LHC Injectors chain • 2009 (ACCOR): Major contract with Industry to use multi-core Intel/Linux (Today: 10%  LS1: 50%) • In view of LHC upgrade phases and next generation accelerators (CLIC), we think it’s time now to provide state-of-art on Front-End architecture and assess new solutions for the future • VME is slightly behind its industrial competitors that are ready with new technologies: Compactness, Performance and High-Availability AGM-2011 - What's next in the COFE room?

  3. Strong and Ristretto please! • Indeed, since 2006 Telecom market made significant investments to define Embedded RT hardware: MicroTCA • AdvancedTCA(ATCA)  MicroTCA (yTCA) • MicroTCA opportunity? • Inherits ATCA capabilities: Bandwith, Performance, Robustness, RAS • Open architecture (PICMG consortium) • Protocol agnostic (PCIe, GbEthernet, RapidIO, ..) • Global and Intelligent remote management (IPMI) • Small form factor system • Cost-effective solution • MicroTCA for Physics (xTCA) • High-data transfer rates • Rear Transition Module (extended IPMI) • Backplane timing distribution and signal triggering • Physics community already opted for xTCA architecture (SLAC, DESY, ..) AGM-2011 - What's next in the COFE room?

  4. Spicy! • Several years of R&D resulted in the first CLIC Design Conception(CDR1 for Controls) • In particular, CO/FE has to provide Generic read-out system (ACM) for all two-beam modules (TDR 2016) • ACM Design is rather challenging: • Integration and compactness: 22000modules • Radiation hardness: ~1kGy/year ( no CPU, no OS) • Low power consumption: <0.5W/IO ch. (100W/ACM) • Synch. LAN data transfer between ACM and CLIC control system (immune to EMC) • Remote Configuration and Diagnostic facilities • … AGM-2011 - What's next in the COFE room?

  5. With a long finish …! • BE/CO has been mandated to steer the evaluation and prototyping activities CLIC Control system • 2012: Focus on Beam Instrumentation for CTF3 (LAPP) • CLIC is extremely ambitious, but it is just starting … one can bet on Technological advances and Collaboration • BE/CO has direct interest to evaluate new platform for future use (LHC included) and to invest on potential improvement of the CO multi-tier approach AGM-2011 - What's next in the COFE room?

  6. Merry Christmas !!
