Abstract
A general purpose FPGA based DAQ module has been developed. This module has been built around a Virtex-4 FPGA and it is able to acquire up to 1024 different channels distributed over 10 slave cards. The module has an optical interface, a RS-232 port, a USB and a Gigabit Interface. The KLOE-2 experiment is going to use this module to acquire data from the Inner tracker. An embedded processor (Power PC) is present on the FPGA and a telnet server has been developed and installed. A new general purpose data taking system has been based on this new module to acquire the Inner Tracker. The system is presently working at LNF (Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati).
