High-Level Hardware Specifications

The high-level hardware specifications are intended to provide an overview of the hardware components developed for the DACS. Decomposition of these specifications is provided in later sections, to the schematic, PC board and component levels. Some of these specifications have changed over time in a constant attempt to satisfactorily balance the goals set at the system level and the constraints of time, money, and practicality.
