Description
A new kind of 'ADC-Memory' (ADC-M) with real time correction of counting loss in dead time is now used in a multiuser data acquisition and processing system based on DUAL/68000 microcomputer. In data access, it replaces the 'DMA + 1' in classical MCA with the new method 'DMA + N', where N is weight factor of correction. The new method is based on the principle of virtual pulse generator. This method is superior to the correction by the software because the correction needn't take the computer time. Thus, this ADC-M can be used in the counting of high rate pulses
