A hardware readout system for a one dimensional position sensitive proportional counter
- 1. Dept. of Applied Physics, Radiation Technology Group, Delft Univ. of Technology, Delft (Netherlands)
Description
The authors developed a hardware readout system for a curved one dimensional position sensitive X-ray proportional counter. Eight analog signals from cathode strips and wedges are processed to give, within a few microseconds, 14-bit information about the position of detection of an X-ray quantum. Elementary parts of our readout systems are 9-bit Flash-ADCs, Multiplying-DACs and EPROMs
