1. INTRODUCTION
The ICS-130 is a 32-channel, 16-bit, VMEbus data acquisition card with an output rate of
1.2 MSample/sec. The board offers multiple options for generating and moving data at high
speed. This design has been optimized for applications which demand high speed,
precision and ease of integration.
ICS offers software drivers for the ICS-130 for a number of platforms (including VxWorks
and Solaris). Use of one of these drivers is strongly recommended, since they greatly
simplify control and operation of the ICS-130. This will generally save the programmer
much time since he/she is relieved of the requirement to understand the complexities of the
ICS-130 hardware model and of the Tundra Semiconductor SCV64 VMEbus interface
device. Contact ICS for further details about available drivers.
