The Model 7072T is a unique dual channel device that can operate either as an ultra fast analog-to-digital converter with a fixed conversion time of 500 ns*, a time-to-digital converter (TDC) or an analog SVA . The 7072T is ideally suited for high counting rate applications in energy and time Spectroscopy. The combined ADC/TDC function finds applications in time resolved photon, ion-, neutron- and X-ray imaging.

The built-in Single Channel Analyzer has a separate output on the front panel. This output can be used in the ADC and SVA mode. An analog output is available for monitoring the TDC.

In the SVA mode a voltage level or waveform can be sampled when a gate signal is applied.

*) Conversion time of ADC. For dead time calculation add time-to-peak and 100 ns transfer time to data buffer.
