Description

The GigaBit Transceiver (GBT) and the low power GBT (lpGBT) link architecture and protocol have been developed by CERN for physical experiments in the Large Hadron Collider as a radiation-hard optical link between the detectors and the data processing FPGAs (https://gitlab.cern.ch/gbt-fpga/). This presentation shows the details of how to implement a large array of GBT/lpGBT links (up to 48 x 4.8/5.12/10.24 Gbps) on a custom data acquisition board based on the Intel Arria 10 FPGA.
