Use of microprocessors in dosimetry

A general purpose evaluation and computer unit was developed for measuring ionizing radiation, based on a microcomputer with microprocessor. Arithmetical and logical operations are provided by a 8080A type microprocessor, the microprocessor timing is ensured using an 8224 clock generator in cooperation with a 8228 system controller. Memory blocks, a keyboard and two displays are wired to the CPU. Radiation counters are placed separately. (M.D.)
