Digital Pulse Processors (DPP)
Dp5 - OEM DPP & MCA
|
Our DP5 is a high performance digital pulse processor (DPP) optimised for OEMs and lab users. It digitizes the preamplifier output signals, replacing both the shaping amplifier and MCA in a traditional, analog spectroscopy system.
The DP5 offers several clear advantages over traditional systems, including improved performance (very high resolution, reduced ballistic deficit, higher throughput, and enhanced stability), enhanced flexibility, low power consumption, small size, and low cost. |
DP5G Kit – OEM DPP for Scintillators & PMTs
|
DP5G Kit is a state-of-the-art, high performance, low power digital pulse processor designed for use in scintillation spectroscopy systems. Connected to the anode of a PMT, it includes a charge sensitive preamplifier and a digital pulse processor, which replaces both the shaping amplifier and the MCA in a traditional nuclear spectroscopy system.
The DP5G Kit consists of three boards stacked together: The DP5G digital pulse processor board, the PCG interface board, and the AUX board. The DP5G represents the latest generation in digital pulse processing. It is a variant of the DP5, optimised for scintillation readout. The DP5 technology includes faster peaking times, improved pile-up rejection and pulse shape discrimination, better dead time correction, additional features such as a “List Mode,” and enhanced interfaces. |
PX5 DPP, MCA and Power Supply
|
PX5 interfaces between (1) an X-ray and gamma-ray detector with its preamplifier and (2) a computer running data acquisition and control software, it can be used with many other radiation detectors and preamplifiers, including HPGe detectors and scintillators.
The PX5 offers several advantages over traditional systems, including improved performance (very high resolution, reduced ballistic deficit, higher throughput, and enhanced stability), many more configuration options to optimise the system, and many communications and output options. |
X-Ray Multichannel Analysers
MCA-8000D
|
Superior performance is obtained from a high speed ADC (a 100 MHz 16 bit ADC) and sophisticated digital logic. The MCA-8000D digitises the input signal (the output of an analog shaping amplifier) to measure the pulse height and obtain the pulse height spectrum. The high speed ADC, with a 10 ns conversion time, reduces dead time thus increasing throughput. The digital circuitry yields high accuracy and stability.

MCA-8000D Option PA
|
|
The Option PA package has been developed to facilitate the use of the MCA-8000D for particle counting in airborne (Size Calibration) and liquid suspended1 (Number Calibration) particle applications. The unit is calibrated and certified traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
The Option PA package is capable of detecting pulses from 5 mV to 10 V. The MCA-8000D is typically connected to the output of a particle sensor. It detects and displays a spectrum of pulse heights allowing the user to determine if a given particle size is producing the correct voltage. |
Multichannel Analysers (MCAs)
|
Multichannel Analyzers (MCAs) are workhorse instruments in many scientific measurements. An MCA analyzes a stream of voltage pulses and sorts them into a histogram, or “spectrum” of number of events, versus pulse-height, which may often relate to energy or time of arrival. The stored spectrum may then be displayed and analyzed.
We offer a huge variety of MCAs, depending on your project, instruments used & its various compatibility (i.e. Alpha Spectroscopy, Gamma Spectroscopy) Please contact us with your requirements for further information. |
Single Channel Analyzers
|
A single channel analyzer (SCA) produces an output logic pulse on the condition that the peak amplitude of its input signal falls within the pulse-height window that is established with two preset threshold levels.
ORTEC provides two basic types or classifications of SCAs: non-timing SCAs and timing SCAs. Non-timing SCAs produce an output pulse if the input signal is within the window settings. Timing SCAs produce an output logic signal precisely related in time to the occurrence of the event being measured. |
COUNTERS, TIMERS, RATE METERS & MULTICHANNEL SCALING
|
Counters simply count the number of input pulses received during the counting period.
Timers count pulses generated by an internal or external clock and are used to measure elapsed time, or to establish the length of the counting period. Rate meters provide a readout of the pulse count rate. Multichannel scalers count the number of events that occur during a specified time interval, referred to as the dwell time, resulting in a time-histogram of counts. “Standalone” and programmable computer controlled versions are available.

ORTEC PREAMPLIFIERS
|
The primary function of a preamplifier is to extract the signal from the detector without significantly degrading the intrinsic signal-to noise ratio.
Three basic types of preamplifiers are available: the current-sensitive preamplifier, the parasitic-capacitance preamplifier, and the charge-sensitive preamplifier. Please contact us to find the preamplifier to fit your detector, your application, and your budget. Click here to find out more about Preamplifiers. |
