Abstract:
The HZB-Cyclotron delivers since a long time reliable beam for experiments and Proton Therapy. Now the old analogue beam diagnostic is outdated and hard to maintain. We developed a digital replacement for the multiplexers for 30 Faraday cups and 12 beam profile monitors. Both use as hardware platform a single-board-controller with FPGA-technology with integrated analogue and digital signals in a client-server architecture. Here we present the new features after more than one year of operation.
