A High Channel Density Digital Acquisition System
SBC: PACIFIC MICROCHIP CORP. Topic: C5522aNuclear physics (NP) experiments require large channel count detectors to accurately monitor, or trace events induced by sub-atomic particles. Gamma- and X-ray imaging and spectroscopy instruments are frequently utilized to detect, localize, and characterize nuclear materials, photons, or particles of light. These detector systems include a large number of simultaneously working detector elements. ...
