Module control of the jFEX for the ATLAS Calorimeter Trigger Upgrade — •Rouven Spreckels, Reinhold Degele, Ulrich Schäfer, and Stefan Tapprogge — Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz, Germany

The jFEX (jet Feature EXtractor) will identify jets and τ particles and calculate energy sums with the data received from electromagnetic and hadronic calorimeters by running its algorithms on multiple processor FPGAs. The firmware and configuration of these algorithms are provided by a single control FPGA accessed through a central Ethernet port. For reasons of flexibility this control FPGA is placed on a mezzanine card based on a hybrid SoC (System on Chip) combining an FPGA and a CPU inside a single chip with many interconnects in between. This talk will present the design of this mezzanine card and the usage of the hybrid SoC approach.
