Ethernet Power Supply Controller(EPSC)
The EPSC was intended as a replacement for the PEP 2 Bitbus Power Supply Control chassis
The intent was to provide as much commonality as possible with the Bitbus controller
The performance was to be equal or better then the Bitbus chassis
Should not cost more then Bitbus controller

The main components to be changed
The DAC used in the Bitbus chassis is obsolete and a new DAC was required.The Bitbus network is obsolete and it is desirable to convert to Ethernet (10/100 Mb/sec over UTP)The FPGAs are at end of life and are not good choices for new designsThe 8044 processor is obsoleteUse standard +/-15VDC power supply

The main features to preserve
Size of controller (1U in 19 inch rack)Power Supply, Transductor, and Interlock connector types and interfacesUse Bitbus Daughter BoardsSupport Bitbus command setUse existing Bitbus local control boardSupport for redundant transductorAll interlocks handled by FPGA, not softwareAbility to reset processor without turning off power supply

Desirable improvements
Improved speed and resolution of ADC
Internal Fan to allow true 1U stacking
Air Filter and closed chassis to minimize dirt
Provide option of analog or digital regulation
Magnet Interlock circuit to locate faulted klixons in magnet strings
Extended analog readbacks
