Some neurobiological applications of the BBC Model B microcomputer and Unilab 8-bit interface.
Four computer programs written for the BBC Model B microcomputer (coupled to a Unilab 8-bit interface) are discussed. These programs enable the system to be used as (1) a transient recorder, (2) a rapid signal averager, (3) a spike-train analyser and (4) an instrument for measuring the amplitude of single channel currents. Flow-charts illustrating the operation of each program are given along with a detailed discussion of how the programs may be used in the laboratory. The discussion is illustrated using recordings taken from experiments conducted on a range of neurobiological preparations.
