Abstract

From the ATLAS Phase-I upgrade and onward, new or upgraded detectors and trigger systems will be interfaced to the data acquisition, detector control and timing (TTC) systems by the Front-End Link eXchange (FELIX). FELIX is the core of the new ATLAS Trigger/DAQ architecture. Functioning as a router between custom serial links and a commodity network, FELIX is implemented by server PCs with commodity network interfaces and PCIe cards with large FPGAs and many high speed serial fiber transceivers. By separating data transport from data manipulation, the latter can be done by software in commodity servers attached to the network. Replacing traditional point-to-point links between Front-end components and the DAQ system by a switched network, FELIX provides scaling, flexibility uniformity and upgradability and reduces the diversity of custom hardware solutions in favour of software.
这是连接ATLAS实验前端电子设备的新方法
从ATLAS第一阶段升级开始,新的或升级的探测器和触发系统将通过前端链路交换(FELIX)连接到数据采集、探测器控制和定时(TTC)系统。FELIX是新的ATLAS触发器/DAQ架构的核心。FELIX作为自定义串行链路和商品网络之间的路由器,由具有商品网络接口的服务器pc和带有大型fpga和许多高速串行光纤收发器的PCIe卡实现。通过将数据传输与数据操作分离,后者可以通过附加在网络上的商品服务器中的软件来完成。FELIX通过交换网络取代了前端组件和DAQ系统之间的传统点对点链接,提供了可扩展性、灵活性、一致性和可升级性,并减少了定制硬件解决方案的多样性,有利于软件。
