FF-LYNX: Fast and flexible electrical links for data acquisition and distribution of Timing, Trigger and Control signals in future High Energy Physics experiments

摘要

The FF-LYNX project aims at the definition of a flexible protocol that can handle both the distribution of Timing, Trigger and Control (TTC) signals and the data acquisition in future High Energy Physics (HEP) experiments. The implementation of this protocol in digital interfaces designed and produced in standard CMOS technologies (130 and/or 90 nm) and available as "IP cores" is also foreseen.
