  1. FEE/DAQ Demonstrator Walter F.J. Müller, GSI, Darmstadtfor the CBM Collaboration 3rd FutureDAQ WorkshopGSI, Darmstadt, October 11, 2005

  2. Mission Statement • Provide a platform to • demonstrate essential architecture elements of the CBM FEE-DAQ concept • FEE: self-triggered, data push, conditional RoI based readout • CNet: combined data, time, control, and RoI traffic • TNet: low jitter clock and synchronization over serial links • BNet: high bandwidth, RDMA based architecture • E/DCS: integrated approach for DCS/ECS • provide test bed for all future FEE/DAQ prototyping in • hardware • firmware • controlware • software • perform beam tests with detector prototypes • form basis for medium-scale applications in intermediate-term experiments • Be operational by end 2006 • avoid cathedrals, go for the bazaar, try and learn • build a first generation (G1) demonstrator quickly 3rd FutureDAQ Workshop --- Walter F.J. Müller, GSI

  3. System Layout FEE boards FEE CNet links CNet DCB: data combiner boards TNet Clock/Trigger distribution CDL: CBM detector links ABB: active buffer boards BNet EB Switch Backend processors HNet General Network to archive 3rd FutureDAQ Workshop --- Walter F.J. Müller, GSI

  4. G1 Demonstrator: BNet FEE • Key architectural element in modern high speed data transport is RDMA • e.g. Infiniband • e.g. iWARP, iSCSI • Separate • data transport via zero-copy RDMA • status management via reliable messages CNet TNet BNet • Proposal: • Architecture choice: CBM BNet based on RDMA (e.g. uDAPL or other API) • Implementation choice: use InfiniBand HNet to archive 3rd FutureDAQ Workshop --- Walter F.J. Müller, GSI

  5. G1 Demonstrator: TNet FEE CNet • TNet proposal: • reuse CNet components • TNet link proposal: • just a CNet link • run unidirectional • possibly use optical splitters • TNet controler proposal: • just a DCB with other firmware TNet BNet HNet to archive 3rd FutureDAQ Workshop --- Walter F.J. Müller, GSI

  6. TNet Controller and Setup ...... ...... DCB DCB DCB DCB passive optical splitter or as alternative another layer of DCBs Use DCB as TNet controller - different firmware - little extra hardware - trigger inputs - clock generator DCB-TC hardware trigger inputs and likely also 1-2 outputs optionally connect to ABB Trigger DATA 3rd FutureDAQ Workshop --- Walter F.J. Müller, GSI

  7. ..... ..... ..... ..... Clock and Jitter Propagation Bottom Line: Clock distributed over 2 or 3 hops ...... DCB DCB DCB DCB Is a passive splitterfeasible or even desirable ?If not, an extra layer ofDCBs need for clock fan-outfor more than 64 FEE boards Use DCB as TNet controller - different firmware - little extra hardware - trigger inputs - master clock generator DCB-TC hardware trigger inputs and likely also some outputs optionally connect to ABB Trigger DATA 3rd FutureDAQ Workshop --- Walter F.J. Müller, GSI

  8. G1 Demonstrator: FEE FEE • Get started with a • general purpose • chamber-mountable • modest density • ADC + FPGA based board • Plausible parameters: • 16 channels • 100 MHz sampling • 10 bit • If needed, a pipeline TDC based FEE module to support Time-over-Threshold based systems might be added too CNet TNet BNet HNet to archive 3rd FutureDAQ Workshop --- Walter F.J. Müller, GSI

  9. DCB Connectivity bi-directional optical linkdata, trigger, RoI, control, clockOptions: OASE or V4 MGT ............ Link Link Link Link for processing: use Virtex-4 - FX have PPC, Ethernet MAC, MGT - but: V-4 FX are hard to get these days FPGA MEM enough SDRAM memory to allow - operation of both PPCs - data buffering CPLD NVRAM support remote reconfiguration Link uni-directional optical link; trigger, aux. control, clock Ether Ether SFP SFP primary data interface: MGT+SFP Ethernet as control interfaceand auxiliary data interface CLK/TRG DATA CNTL/DATA 3rd FutureDAQ Workshop --- Walter F.J.

  14. Status • ABB/DCB Prototype • wait for J. Gläß talk in a few minutes • OASE Status • see presentations of R. Tielert and S. Tontisirin on Wednesday • DAQ Controls • just heard H. Essel • InfiniBand Test-Cluster • 4 node cluster ordered, will be probably be delivered next week • Contacts established to larger IB based clusters to allow scaling tests with realistic cluster sizes in the future. 3rd FutureDAQ Workshop --- Walter F.J.
