VxWorks Software
DESCRIPTION
Jean de Kat and his collegues from CEA-Saclay, Dapnia/Sei have written
a VxWorks driver for the S-LINK to PMC card. The software has been tested
on a Motorola 2604-333MHz-64MB VME processor board. With the SLIDAS as
a full-speed data generator, a transfer rate from S-LINK into the Motorola's
memory of 82 MByte/sec has been measured. This is largely enough for his
MEGACAM telescope application in
which the CCD camera data is coming from a SHARC link (max 40 MB/s) before
it is transferred over an FCS-LINK to the Motorola processors.
The software is based on the NA48 Linux driver. Only an S-LINK receiver
driver has been made.
STATUS
| 18 September 1998 |

S-LINK drivers from NA48 and ORL. |
