Detector Boards
A Detector Board is attached to each installed detector. These boards, which are
software controlled, contain a high voltage supply, preamplifier, pulse shaping
amplifier, discriminator, counters and interface circuitry.
CAUTION:
Remove power before (dis)connecting cables to or
from a Detector Board.
Gamma Detector Boards (i.e., for scintillation detectors) have a single channel
preamplifier/amplifier, pulse shaping amplifier, discriminator, and counter.
A test pulser is provided on-board for amplifier and discriminator testing. The pulse
amplitude is software-controlled and can range from 0 to 2.5 for the pulser and 0 to
0.5 V for the discriminator in gamma counting circuits.
The high-voltage power supply provides regulated positive voltage under software
control. The actual value of the high voltage is measured and used to detect high
voltage failures and for display purposes.
