Abstract
The Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST) is planned to run 1000 s plasma discharges in the near future. In this steady-state operation, the data acquisition system (DAS) will be required to continuously acquire diagnostic signals, transfer diagnostic data from the digitizer front-end to the data servers in order that the data is retrieved by the experimenters in real-time. Another disadvantage is that current data acquisition systems consist of many devices which are connected through various cables to provide the requested functionality.
