ABOUT 2115
The Model 2115 Enhanced Serial Highway Driver (SHD) interfaces a host computer to
the CAMAC Serial Highway using the Peripheral Component Interface (PCI) bus. This
single card fits into any computer that can accept a full size PCI adapter card. The SHD
operates the CAMAC Serial Highway from 0.5 MHz to 5 MHz in the byte-serial mode.
The 2115 SHD communicates with the host through a 32-bit data path that is used to
configure and initiate highway operations. A DMA (Direct Memory Access)
mechanism is incorporated to transfer the data to/from the Serial Highway. The 2115
supports PCI burst transfers, yielding a maximum transfer burst of 15 Mbyte/s.
The SHD includes a list processor to execute a preloaded list of highway operations. The list of operations is read from a 32K x 32 RAM memory and then executed. List processing may be initiated by software trigger or by an internal, crystal-controlled, programmable counter/timer.
