This 3D-printed project presents a compact 1U Advanced Mezzanine Card (AMC) shelf developed for educational and testing purposes within the ATLAS Tile Calorimeter project.
The mechanical design provides a cost-effective platform for standalone test benches, which do not require a complete ATCA shelf. The rear section of the 3D-printed prototype integrates a custom backplane to provide communication and power to the AMC modules inserted.
