Merging Digital Data With A Video Signal

Data displayed on television image of experiment. Video images of experiment sent with digital data on experiment to remote station. Digital data raw and unformatted or in form of characters. For minimal power consumption, interface circuit built of CMOS and HMOS integrated-circuit chips. Buffer/decoder circuit enables experiment computer to communicate with board without excessive loading of computer bus by board. Memory multiplexer/memory array implements buffer-swapping scheme as one buffer is read, other filled with new data.
