SIS3100 VME sequencer


The SIS3100 was developed as the VME side of our PCI to VME interface. The module is however perfectly suited for other custom applications like a histogramming multiscaler for LIDAR or a generic DSP controlled VME histogrammer . Up to four SIS3100 can work as a data reduction farm, data can be either read out actively over VME through the master port or passively pushed into the module through the VME slave port.
