Development and testing of the central computer and sequencer for the Mariner Mars 1971 spacecraft

The central computer and sequencer subsystem has been an important part of the Mariner series of interplanetary spacecraft since their inception. As with other spacecraft subsystems, the CC&S has increased in complexity and capability with each spacecraft project. This report describes the design, fabrication, and test associated with the development of the Mariner Mars 1971 CC&S subsystem.
