Abstract
To accept, select and process the information of colliding beam experi ments we have constructed a DAQ called ''KLYUKVA''. The main principle s are: distribution of 500 MHz clock frequency from one center for mea surements of time intervals; disposition of all registering electronic s in special crates with fast databus and triggers communications; usi ng of fast processors with built-in algorithms as crate controllers. T his DAQ with triggers can provide 250 selected and processed events pe r second for on-line computer with similar to 15% of losses. The DAQ w orks now on all three INP detectors: KEDR, SND and KMD-2. (C) 1998 Els evier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
