The CAEN Mod. N1470 provides 4 independent High Voltage channels in a single width NIM mechanics. Two and one channel versions (N1470A and N1470B) are also available. Each channel can provide a ±8kV max voltage, a 3 mA max current and a 9 W max power (8 W max power when output voltage is larger than ±3 kV). The output polarity is independently selectable for each channel.

SHV connector

NIM single width, 4 channels for Mod. N1470, N1470B (1 Ch), N1470A, N1470AL, N1470AR (2 Ch)

Consult our connectors reference page for technical information.

Channels have common floating return (common return insulated from the crate ground); HV outputs are delivered through SHV connectors.
The HV output Ramp-up and Ramp-down rates may be selected independently for each channel in the range 1÷500 V/s in 1 V/s steps. The module features 50nA Iset/Imon resolution. Features include Imon Zoom, increasing resolution to 5 nA.

Power supply control can be performed either locally, assisted by a Graphic color display or remotely, via USB, RS232 or RS485, the latter allowing to build a daisy chain network of modules N14XX. It is also controllable via TCP/IP by the Smart Fan Unit of CAEN NIM8301.

A complete set of free software Tools is available to control this unit: GECO2020 with user friendly GUI and CAEN HV Wrapper library for custom SW development. EPICS and LabVIEW also supported.

Safety features allows the module to perform as a current generator and includes:

Overvoltage and Undervoltage warning	when the output voltage differs from the programmed value by more than 2% of set value (minimum 10V).
Overcurrent detection	when a channel attempts to exceed the programmed current limit, it signalled to be in “overcurrent” and enter in a TRIP status. The output voltage is varied to keep the current below the programmed limit for a programmable TRIP time, then the channel is switched off. If TRIP is set to “constant current mode”, the channel behaves like a current generator.
VMAX	programmable VMAX protection limit.
Safety Board Interlock	Common Interlock logic for channels enable/disable and individual inputs signal for channel Kill function.

Module control can take place either locally, assisted by a Graphic colour display, or remotely, via USB (1) or RS485 (1). It is also controllable via TCP/IP (2) by the Smart Fan Unit of CAEN NIM8301 crate:

Special versions available:

2 channels version (N1470A)
1 channel version (N1470B)
2 channels Low Cost version only locally controllable (N1470AL)
2 channels Low Cost version only remotely controllable (N1470AR)

4 channels, 2U NIM module equipped with 2.8″ Touchscreen, Ethernet and USB interface (N1470ET)

Available Options:

N14xx modules are provided with a USB VCP interface and can be programmed via PC by connecting the PC USB port with the N14xx USB B-type port; the featured controller (FT232BM chip) requires a driver available on this page or at www.ftdichip.com

Trip

Max. time an “overcurrent” can last (seconds). A channel in “overcurrent” works as a current generator; output voltage varies in order to keep the output current lower than the programmed value.
“Overcurrent” lasting more than set value (1 to 9999) causes the channel to “trip”.
Output voltage will drop to zero either at the Ramp-down rate or at the fastest available rate, depending on Power Down setting; in both cases the channel is put in the OFF state.
Trip range: 0 ÷ 999.9 s; 1000 s = INFINITE. Step = 0.1 s (If trip= INFINITE, “overcurrent” lasts indefinitely).
