Abstract

This paper describes the operation and performance of an IBM- PC/AT based image data acquisition system for large format CCDs. The system currently under development can handle image data from CCDs with pixel organization up to 2048 x 2048. Based on commercially available DT-3852 frame grabber board (M/s Data Translation Inc.) and locally developed I/O interfaces, the system provides an economical and user friendly acquisition, display and quick look analysis facility.
