The Digital Systems for Charge Integration family provides fully integrated acquisition platforms optimized for detectors requiring precise charge measurement and pulse shape discrimination. These systems combine high-speed waveform digitization, programmable digital signal processing and integrated detector bias supplies within a compact architecture tailored for scintillation detectors and fast photodetectors such as PMTs and SiPMs.

Built around high-resolution ADCs and dedicated FPGA firmware for Digital Pulse Processing (DPP-PSD), the platforms implement real-time dual-gate charge integration, baseline restoration, self-triggering and pulse-shape analysis. This enables accurate energy reconstruction and particle identification even at high count rates. Integrated high-voltage and low-voltage bias channels simplify detector and preamplifier powering, while multi-board synchronization and optical-link readout allow scalable systems for coincidence, anti-coincidence and distributed acquisition setups. Multiple acquisition modes, including waveform capture, list mode and PSD histogramming; support both experimental optimization and long-term measurements in laboratory and field environments.
