Time Projection Chamber digitizer test system using a microcomputer

Description: A small computer system for testing digitizers, control cards, and backplanes was developed at the Lawrence Berkeley Lab to be used in the Time Projection Chamber (TPC) Detector. The objective of this development was to provide a low cost test system for fast debugging, maintenance, a quality control by outside vendors who fabricated these units as well as Laboratory personnel. When the system was delivered to the vendors, it consisted of the computer programming and documentation necessary to … more

Modular multi-wire readout system for proportional wire chambers

Description: From nuclear science symposium; San Francisco, California, USA (14 Nov 1973). The design features of a data readout system for multiwire proportional chambers are described. The electronic circuitry for this amplifier-per-wire'' system has been designed in modular form to provide ease in system assembly, flexibility, and economy. Fast readout of the hit-pattern data is accomplished by using priority encoder integrated circuits for address generation and bit- parallel transfer of the output data… more
