INTRODUCTION TO CAMAC
CAMAC, an acronym for Computer Automated Measurement And Control, is an IEEE-standard (583), modular, high-performance,
real-time data acquisition and control system concept. Born in 1969, CAMAC now appears in many thousands of scientific, industrial, aerospace, and defense test
systems in more than 40 countries.
CAMAC is a non-proprietary, open-architecture concept providing:
- high-speed data throughput
- a wide variety of I/O interface modules
- distributed intelligence
- computer independence (see our most recent innovation: The Grand Interconnect System
- large I/O point capacity
The modular concept permits computer interaction with virtually any type of sensor, transducer, or final control element. Also available is a standardized Serial Highway that operates at transmission rates to 50 Mbit/sover distances to 3 kilometers between remote locations.
