Abstract

The Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor (TFTR) facility clock system has four related timing subsystems: the TFTR shot clock, the neutral beams clocks, the ion cyclotron range of frequencies (ICRF) system clock, and the disruption trigger system. These systems have been integrated to support increasingly fast sampling rates in data acquisition and greater accuracy in the firing of the neutral beams and ICRF systems during TFTR shots
