''ARBOLA'' SLAC branch driver for PDP-11

Creators

Description

The wide use of CAMAC systems in the Large Aperture Solenoid Spectrometer facility led to the design of several dedicated CAMAC interfaces. The one described here features the implementation of bidirectional data transfers, and is used exclusively with the SLAC crate controller, 135-279. Efforts were made to ensure maximum versatility for acquisition of high-energy physics data. Specifications are set forth, and hardware and software (memory address register, word count register, data buffer register, and high-byte register) are described. 4 figures
