Abstract
An interface for the CAMAC branch highway to a computer is called a branch driver. The design of a branch driver with various capabilities is studied and the modular aspects of the design are explored. The design is divided into three sections, namely, computer, branch high-way and internal. This approach has been implemented on the PDP8 and the PDP15 and also, in the near future, on the PDP11 computer.
