Sumario:The Matrix card is the first in what is expected to be a series of xTCA cards produced for a variety of projects at CMS. It was developed as a joint collaboration between colleagues at Princeton, Imperial College, LANL and CERN. The device comprises the latest generation of readilyavailable Xilinx FPGAs, cross-point switch technology and high-density optical links in a 3U form factor. In this paper we will discuss the development and test results of the Matrix card, followed by some of the tasks to which it is being applied.
