Taking advantage of the rapidly growing field of VLSI design, expertise and development environment is evolved to carry out FPGA & CPLD based hardware projects in Accelerator Control Section. VLSI lab environment with synthesis, simulation, P&R process and FPGA implementation tools, is set up to undertake new hardware projects as well as up-gradation of existing systems. Following FPGA & CPLD based developments are done in-house for Indus-2 control system:

• FPGA based Coarse-Fine Delay Generator VME Board for Timing Control
• FPGA based Coincidence Generator VME Cards for Timing Control
• CPLD based ADC Board for Beam Diagnostics Control
• CPLD based Opto Input VME Board
• CPLD based VME Interrupt Generator Board
