| SPring-8 experimental Data Repository system (SP8DR) is an online storage service, which is built as one of the infrastructure services of SPring-8. SP8DR enables experimental user to obtain his experimental data, which was brought forth at SPring-8 beamline, on demand via the Internet. To make easy searching for required data-sets later, the system stored experimental data with meta-data such as experimental conditions. It is also useful to the post-experiment analysis process. As a framework for data management, we adopted DSpace that is widely used in the academic library information system. We made two kind of application software for registering an experimental data simply and quickly. These applications are used to record metadata-set to SP8DR database that has relations to experimental data on the storage system. This data management design allowed applications to high bandwidth data acquisition system. In this presentation, we report about the SPring-8 experimental Data Repository system that began operation in SPring-8 beamline. | ||

X-ray imaging detectors are indispensable for synchrotron radiation experiments and growing up with larger number of pixels and higher frame rate to acquire more information on the samples. The novel detector with data rate of up to 8 Gbps/sensor, SOPHIAS, is under development at SACLA facility. Therefore, we have developed a new front-end DAQ system with high data rate beyond the present level. The system consists of an FPGA-based evaluation board and a FPGA mezzanine card (FMC). As the FPGA interface, FMC was adopted for supporting variety of interfaces and considering COTS system. Since the data transmission performance of the FPGA board in combination with the FMCs was already evaluated as about 20 Gbps between boards, our choice of devices has the potential to meet the requirements of SOPHIAS detector*. We made a FMC with Camera Link (CL) interface to support 1st phase of SOPHIAS detector. Since almost CL configurations are supported, the system handles various types of commercial cameras as well as new detector. Moreover, the FMC has general purpose input/output to satisfy various experimental requirements. We report the design of new front-end DAQ and results of evaluation.
