Abstract.

The new generation of detector arrays require complex instrumentation and data acquisition system to ensure increased reliability of operation, high degree of integration, software control and faster data handling capability. The main features of some of the existing multi-detector arrays like MSU 4p array, Gammasphere and Eurogam are summarized. The instrumentation for the proposed INGA array in India is discussed.

Keywords:  Multi-detector array; electronics and data acquisition system.
