Popis: Multichannel, high speed, signal sources generate large amounts of data which cannot be handled realtime on the camac dataway. TRAQ I is a modular CAMAC system designed to buffer and process data of this type. The system can acquire data from up to 256 sources (ADCs etc.) and store in local memory (4 Mbytes). Many different signal sources can be controlled, working in either a histogramming or sequential mode. The system's data transfer bus is designed to accommodate other modules which can pre- or postprocess the data. Pre-processors can either intercept the data flow to memory for data compaction or passively monitor, looking for signal excursions, etc. Post-processors access memory to process and rewrite the data or transmit to other devices.
