Abstract :
This paper reports the status of the TOTEM Data Acquisition System (DAQ) upgrade using the Scalable Readout System (SRS). In particular, it focus on the architecture of the FPGA firmware and gives an overview of the verification methodology. Finally, the paper presents efficiency and reliability of the newly developed system.
