About microTCA...
MicroTCA (Micro Telecommunications Computing Architecture) is an electrical and mechanical open standard for managed, compact, modular and high-realiability electronic boards.
Main advantages of MicroTCA are its high modularity and reliability along state-of-the art digital technologies supporting PCIe, 10 Gigabit Ethernet and other high-speed interconnects.
MicroTCA.4 has rapidly evolved to become a viable standard for demanding applications e.g. particle accelerators, high-energy physics, plasma fusion sources and many more.
For industries with a keen interest in fully managed, compact, modular and reliable computing performance MicroTCA is the platform to trust on!
About the Lab...
The MicroTCA Technology Lab is one of seven Innovation Labs funded by the Helmholtz Association.
DESY together with partners has created this User Innovation Lab.
Our goal is to foster the electronics standard MicroTCA in research and industry. We want to facilitate the use of MicroTCA and support new and existing users of the technology with our products and services.
