//    Generic chip class for Gassiplex, Hardroc and Dirac chips
//
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// - this class is abstract
// - the Gassiplex chip does not exist by itself, one channel corresponds
//   to one chip
// - Hardroc and Dirac boards usually contain 24 chips. Chip Id is unique
//   for every Dif.
