| Abstract | Diamond Light Source has chosen the MicroTCA platform for high performance data acquisition and controls as part of the Diamond-II 4th generation light source upgrade. One requirement is the ability to create custom advanced mezzanine cards (AMCs) for signal conditioning and interlock support. To facilitate this, a module management controller (MMC) is required to negotiate payload power and communications between the AMC and MicroTCA shelf. A popular open-source firmware for controlling such a device is OpenMMC, a project from the Brazillian Light Source (LNLS), which employs a modular approach using FreeRTOS on ARM microcontrollers. Initially, OpenMMC supported the NXP LPC series of devices. However, to make use of Diamond’s existing ST Microelectronics (STM32) infrastructure, we have integrated a CERN fork of the project supporting STM32 microcontrollers into OpenMMC. In this paper, we outline our workflow and experiences introducing a new ARM device into the project. | |
