Popis:	The IBM PC and its various clones have found extensive use in the analytical laboratory. Hardware advances have been paralleled by the development of high and low level languages which allow the programmer to better access the capabilities of the PC for instrument control and data acquisition. This paper reports on the design and implementation of a PC based digital interface for the Cameca IMS‐3f, a commercial secondary ion mass spectrometer. The IMS‐3f was originally interfaced to a Hewlett‐Packard 9845B computer. The new interface is completely compatible with the PC architecture and the existing IMS‐3f circuitry. Implementation of the PC interface has enabled the incorporation of other commercially available PC hardware to enhance the analytical capabilities of the IMS‐3f.
