| Abstract | The Embedded Monitoring and Control Interface (EMCI) and Embedded Monitoring Processor (EMP) system is a state-of-the-art solution developed for the Detector Control System (DCS) upgrade in the ATLAS experiment. The EMCI serves as a radiation-tolerant interface for control and monitoring data of the detector Front-End electronics. The EMP, a multi-processing System on Chip (MPSoC) platform, serves as the interface between the EMCIs and the Back-End of the DCS, providing centralized data handling and monitoring capabilities. The firmware and software ecosystem includes the EMP operating system (epos), dedicated firmware IP blocks, associated software libraries, and OPC UA based middleware applications. This paper focuses on the ongoing hardware verification and development of the firmware and software infrastructure for the EMCI-EMP system. |
