MWPC data acquisition in the Brookhaven FASTBUS

OSTI ID:5549326
For Brookhaven AGS Experiment No. 749, a data acquisition system to accommodate 12, 256 wire multiwire proportional chambers (MWPCs) has been built in the context of the Brookhaven FASTBUS. Information about wires hit or continuous clusters of wires hit is encoded as the centroids of the clusters and number of wires in those clusters. The encoded information is stored in a stack memory in a FASTBUS module where it can be accessed by a FASTBUS Master. Encoding time is less than 4 microseconds. Also, information (in the form of front panel outputs) as to the nature of the data is available in less than 200 nanoseconds.
