PCI express hotplug implementation for ATCA based instrumentation
详细信息   
摘要
•Hotplug capabilities are designed as an expected or graceful methodology in which the user is not permitted to install or remove a PCIe endpoint device without first notifying the system software.•Hotswap capabilities allow endpoints or PCIe switches with endpoints to be inserted or removed from a PCIe system gracefully or unexpectedly without special consideration.•ATCA, advanced telecommunication computer architecture is a new specification with high availability and high reliability key features which improves data acquisition systems.•Data acquisition systems are used almost everywhere and a demand in the nuclear fusion research field.•Nuclear fusion is a future alternative for power and energy resources generation for world humanity consumption.
