PC Event Generator

PC Event Generator

The PC based Event Generator is the next generation event generator based on the earlier Q-Bus version. As a result of advances in technology, programmable gate arrays are used to provide enhanced features. Key features are:

• Inbuilt Frame Grabber (entire frame),
• Inbuilt Waveform generator.
• Reduced power consumption.
• Pending Event purging.
• Near 100% connector pinout compatibility with Q-Bus version.
• Accepts either complementary (9 pin D) or single ended (BNC) distributed BAT Clock signal.
• 1 second (whole) interrupt tick.
• Timed interrupt (software selectable) from any one of the 16 standard Event output lines.
• Waveform generator enable control (software selectable) from any one of the 16 standard Event output lines.
• Host Event write and read.
• Selectable free run Event Strobe.
• AT ISA bus standard supporting both 8 bit and 16 bit transfers.
• ORed interrupt and DMA Request.
• Compactness and 2 layer PCB.
