  • Software adjustable digital shaping filter, baseline restoration and fine gain

  • Online pile-up rejection and software dead time evaluation

  • Suited also for high count rate application

  • Configurable coincidence or anti-coincidence of the input analog
    signals for background rejection and anti-compton shield

  • Drivers, libraries and API for Windows and Linux 32/64 bit

  • CoMPASS software to manage the acquisition and perform basic spectrum analysis

The CAEN Mod.V1782 is the new Octal 32k digital MCA. Designed for high energy resolution semiconductor detector is perfectly suited for those application in which the number of input channels start becoming relevant such as when segmented HPGe, Clovers and silicon detectors are involved.
The V1782 provides four steps of software selectable coarse gain and two possible jumper selectable dynamical ranges (0.2-0.4-0.8-1.6 Vpp and 1-2-4-8 Vpp).
It is also compatible with Transistor reset preamplifier thanks to the jumper selectable 10 μs AC coupling.

Like the other members of the x781 family, the V1782 integrates advanced firmware algorithm for the processing of any kind of exponential signal or coming from charge sensitive preamplifier and can be easily adapted to different detectors and application ensuring an effective processing even at high count rates.
These algorithms includes advanced tools for the baseline restoration and pile-up rejection.

Thanks to the multiple input simultaneous acquisition, the module is able to manage coincidence and anticoincidence logic between segment of the same detector or different detectors, allowing the user to take advantage of background rejection or anti-Compton techniques.

The V1782 provides at the same time energy, time stamp and, if required, digitized pulse in a configurable acquisition windows in order to perform further off line analysis.
Acquisition settings and simple analysis operation are performed using CoMPASS software that provides energy spectra up to 32k channels. The spectra can be exported and imported in ASCII o N42.42 compliant files.

CAEN provides also the drivers for the supported communication interfaces, C and Labview libraries (CAENComm, CAENDigitizer, CAENDPP) demo application and utilities.
