Design of a Multichannel-Analyzer based on FPGA Programmable Module
- 1. Centro Brasileiro de Pesquisas Físicas (CBPF), Rio de Jabneiro, RJ (Brazil)
Description
This paper describes the design of a Multichannel Analyzer (MCA) with an available scientific purpose data acquisition module. A high-speed analog-to-digital converter and a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) available on the module makes it well suited for such development. A very useful foreseen application of that MCA is the characterization of gas detectors by using Iron-55 radiation sources. (author)
