Nuclear Pulse Generators
Random-, Tail-, Ramp- Generators as NIM-Modules.
FAST ComTec represents in Germany, Austria and Switzerland products from Berkeley Nucleonics Corporation (BNC). There is a large product range available from General purpose Pulse Generators to Digital Delay Generators. Random-, Tail-, Ramp-, Delay-Generators and optical Modules as Benchtops or as NIM-Modules. Here is the list of Nuclear Pulse Generators.
The Model DB-2 is a pulse generator which accurately simulates the random and pileup characteristics of pulses from a radiation detector. It provides pulses which are monoenergetic over a broad range of average count rates. Under high count rate conditions, the pulses will pileup. This characteristic is useful in determining pile-up or count-rate effects and in measuring the resolution of high count rate spectroscopy systems. Besides random pulses, the Model DB-2 also provides monoenergetic repetitive pulses. In this mode, the DB-2 is an excellent general purpose pulser.
The PB-5 sets a new standard for precision pulse generators. It offers full digital controllability with a built-in ramp generator for linearity Testing. It provides tail and flat top pulses with outstanding integral linearity and extremely low amplitude change with temperature. The PB-5 is capable of testing the stability, linearity and resolution of the most demanding spectroscopy circuits and instrumentation. It is the successor to the industry standard, PB-4, and to the 9010. The 4x16 LCD display, keypad, and a spinner knob provide a user interface that is easy to use. RS232 interface is also standard along with memory that will store and recall nine complete pulse setups.
