Description

This work presents the development of a student oriented control system for the MOPS-Hub crate for the ITk-ATLAS detector, based on an Arduino microcontroller and an FPGA platform. The project includes fixes and improvements to the existing Arduino firmware, contributing to a better understanding of the system. Additionally, a low-level control and monitoring system for a single Card Interface Card (CIC) was implemented using a CORA Z7 FPGA, relying exclusively on the Programmable Logic (PL). Communication is achieved using SPI and UART, enabling LDO control and ADC monitoring for each channel.
