An integrated approach to scanning microscope data acquisition.
This paper describes an integrated data acquisition system built for a cryogenic STEM which is currently under construction in the authors' laboratory. Advantage was taken of modern digital and microprocessor techniques to construct a versatile and expandable system in the minimum time. The system is able to operate in conjunction with an external image processing computer or as an independent system with built-in image processing facilities.
