Data acquisition system for the Sandia Particle Beam Fusion Accelerator II

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6472896
; ; ;
This paper describes the Data Acquisition System (DAS) for the Particle Beam Fusion Accelerator II (PBFA II) at Sandia National Laboratories. This DAS incorporated several advanced features over those developed for previous pulsed power facilities at Sandia. Some major improvements are the use of LeCroy 6880 waveform recorders, multiplexing up to 4 signals on each 6880, dual, 32-bit, virtual memory computers, a pulsed reference source automatic waveform recorder calibration system, and LeCroy 4208 time-interval digitizers.
