AbstractA New Machine Protection System (MPS) at the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) was developed and implemented on µTCA-based hardware platforms. The system monitors more than 2500 field inputs and shuts off the beam within 10 µs if adverse events occur. We will present system level design process of various firmware and software components as well as the system integration into EPICS environment. The performance analysis of the MPS after two SNS run cycles will also be presented.
