Single And Dual 32k Digital MCA & Pulse Processor
Hexagon Family
-
Hexagon is a high precision 32k MCA available in single and dual input channel versions. This compact, high performance desktop MCA includes features such as an input stage for signal conditioning, a fast analog-to-digital converter (ADC), digital signal processing algorithms, High Voltage and Preamplifier outputs for detector bias and preamp power. Hexagon is ideally suited for applications using high energy resolution semiconductor detectors such as HPGe, Silicon, CZT as well as scintillation detectors such as NaI and LaBr3. It can manage both positive and negative signals from resistive feedback or transistor reset preamplifier detectors as well as signals coming from PMT anodes.

VME Master - DAQ and Detector Interface
VX1394
-
The VX1394 board features a radiation hard 4.8 Gbps SERDES ASIC, which, in connection to a rad-hard optical transceiver implements a newer generation optical links for many detector readout systems. The ASIC performs data transmission, trigger distribution and clock forwarding towards the front-end electronics in the crate.

8 Channel Dual Range Multievent QDC
V965A
-
The Mod. V965A is a 1-unit wide VME 6U module housing 8 Charge-to-Digital Conversion channels with current integrating negative inputs (50 Ohm impedance). For each channel, the input charge is converted to a voltage level by a QAC (Charge to Amplitude Conversion) section.

Digitizer
751Family
-
The 751 is a family of CAEN Waveform Digitizer able to perform basic waveform recording and run online advanced algorithms (DPP) of charge integration and pulse shape discrimination with constant fraction timing and zero-length encoding. Data is read by a Flash ADC, 10-bit resolution and 1GS/s sampling rate (2GS/s using half of the channels in DES mode), which is well suited for fast signals as the ones coming from fast organic, inorganic and liquid scintillators coupled to PMTs or Silicon Photomultipliers, Diamond detectors and others. The acquisitioncan be channel independent and it is possible to make coincidence/ anti-coincidence logic among diferent channels and external veto/ gating. Multiple boards can be synchronized to build up complex systems.

Universal Multichannel System
-
Power Supply Systems are 100% internally developed and designed to install into a standard 19” relay rack. The mainframes and dedicated HV/LV boards were purposefully designed to provide peak performance in a broad spectrum of operational scenarios and for a vast number of detector types. CAEN mainframe systems are modular, making upgrade and maintenance a breeze.A single mainframe may house and provide control for up to 768 independent channels. Each mainframe may be configured with a mixture of both High Voltage boards for detector bias and Low Voltage boards to drive peripheral electronics.
