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.

 

Features
  • Interfaces the Peripheral Component Interface (PCI) to the CAMAC Serial Highway (IEEE Standard 583)
  • Supports the Enhanced Highway Mode with 3 Mbyte/s throughput
  • 32K x 32 RAM for high-speed hardware List Processing
  • Timer-initiated List Processing for synchronous data acquisition
  • Includes Multi-Buffer functionality
  • Provides up to 2 km (6560 ft) between highway nodes at full throughput using appropriate U-port adapter
Applications
  • Realtime I/O interface for a personal computer or workstation
  • Distributed data acquisition and control
  • Systems requiring high throughput with minimum software overhead
