Scientific paper

The IIS, part of the solar wind ion plasma analyzer in the payload of the European Giotto mission to Comet Halley, is described. Particular attention is given to the major components of the IIS signal conditioning unit, including the scanner, the finder, the TAC/ADC system, the mass classifier, and the in-flight calibration concept. It is noted that a novel finder unit makes it possible to operate all sensors of the multisensor spectrometer simultaneously, thus avoiding adverse duty cycle effects.
