Issue Date: | 2017 | Journal: | MEMORIE DELLA SOCIETA ASTRONOMICA ITALIANA | Number: | 88 | First Page: | 195 | Abstract: | The Sardinia Radio Telescope (SRT), located in San Basilio, about 35 km north of Cagliari, is the largest (64-m diameter) radio telescope in Italy. It is a general-purpose, fully-steerable radio telescope designed to operate in the 300 MHz - 116 GHz frequency range, which allows it to perform a wide variety of scientific studies. The advanced electronic digital platforms that are installed at SRT play a key role, in particular those based on FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Array), both because of their processing capability and their reconfigurability. In this paper, we present an overview of the digital back-ends available at SRT, as well as the ones under development; it is important to underline that, for all of them, FPGAs are the beating heart. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12386/27347 | URL: | http://sait.oat.ts.astro.it/MSAIt880217/index.html | ISSN: | 0037-8720 | Bibcode ADS: | 2017MmSAI..88..195M | Fulltext: | open |
