A detailed description of how to use the CDC-1 digitizer controller is given. The CDC-1 is used with the CAMAC format digitizer models in the TRAQ series (manufactured by DSP Technology Inc.), the DAD-1 data acquisition daughter board, and the Intel i860-based SuperCard-2 (manufactured, by CSP Inc.) to form a high speed data acquisition and real time analysis system. Data can be transferred to the memory on the SuperCard-2 at a rate as high as 40 million 14-bit samples per second. Depending on the model of TRAQ digitizer in use, digitizing rates up to 3.33 MHz are supported (with eight data channels), or, for instance, at a sample rate of 100 kHz, 384 data channels can be acquired.
