13. SPECS System - June 18st 2009 D.CharletSoftware All tools have been developed for Windows and Linux  3 different software levels: PCI drivers: developed by the PLX Company, enables communication with the PLX9030 chip on the SPECS master board via the PCI bus SpecsLib library: computes the different frames for all types of mezzanine access (Parallel, I2C, JTAG,...), for write and read operations. SpecsUser library: decodes the frames into useful data values, manages the status for the PCI accesses, also handles the more complex accesses like JTAG, I2C, DMA, and communications with the on-board ADC (DCU).  All these components interface with the PVSS software
