Abstract
The Princeton Cyclotron minicomputer based data acquisition system is used for nuclear physics research. The system includes eight 13-bit resolution ADC´s, computer readable scalers and a general analog and digital I/O crate interfaced to a Data General Eclipse S/230 with 80K words of memory running under the RDOS operating system. The acquisition program ACQUIRE is a general multiparameter sorting and analysis code capable of high data rates (40 kHz without loss for a repetitious pulser).
