Abstract :
A pulse height analyer with 1,048,576 channels has been developed, using a magnetic drum as storage device. CAMAC instrumentation including a special purpose drum controller is used for interfacing to a PDP-11 computer. By combination of hardware and software techniques a data rate of 104 events per second is achieved.
