Level-1 Data Driver Card of the ATLAS New Small Wheel Upgrade

摘要

The Level-1 Data Driver Card (L1DDC) will be fabricated for the needs of the future upgrades of the ATLAS experiment at CERN. The L1DDC board is a high speed aggre gator board capable of communicating with a large number of front-end electronics. It collects the Level-1 along with monitoring data and transmits them to a network interface through a single bidirectional fibre link. Finally, the L1DDC board distributes trigger, time and configuration data coming from a network interface to the front-end boards.
