Descripción
Sumario:A new concept of CAMAC, allowing critical real-time operation and using a modular CAMAC multicontroller approach, will be applied to the SPS multicomputer control system. Programmed I/O operation, interleaved DMA, fast interrupt logic and autonomous operation in the same CAMAC crate will be used. A typical application of this concept to a high speed high precision analogue data acquisition system is given. CAMAC will be used to interface general purpose multiplexers which drive very large quantities of accelerator control equipment. (0 refs).
