Linac Locking - A System Level Overview

IOC & Firmware Description

The main objective of this project is to provide triggers to devices on the Super-Conducting (SC) line that are designed to operate on Normal-Conducting (NC) reference frequencies. 

...

The idea is to trigger the SC timing system to follow the NC timing system.  The Timing Pattern Generator (TPG) card has 3 TTL inputs for external triggers.  The firmware has the capability to interpret those TTL signals for 1Hz, 60Hz or 360Hz or can also sample the power line to generate independent fiducials.
