Re: Joerger waveform analysers

[Ned Arnold <nda@aps.anl.gov>]

David,

Funny you should ask ... we are actively evaluating VME digitizers for a
number of applications including BPMs, RF measurements, and current
monitors.

We currently have a VTR1012 (12 bits @ 10MHz) and a VTR10010 (10 bits @
100MHz) in our possession. Marty Kraimer has just completed EPICS support 
for these two modules. We were unable to locate the advertised support.

We have a VTR10012 (12 bits @ 100MHz) on order, but the very first batch 
from Joerger has not been manufactured yet. I am expecting it within 
the next two weeks. Marty will provide support for that one too.

I also ordered two modules from Drivesoft 
(http://www.drivesoft.com/physics.htm), manufactured by Struck. One is 
12 bits @ 100MHz, the other is 14 bits @ 65MHz, both are 8 channel units. 
I'm expecting Marty to support these as well, with a consistent approach
to the Joerger modules. 

Passing this on to tech-talk in case anyone else is interested ...
