Overview
CAEN realized different modular Educational Kits. The set-up are all based on Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPM) state of-the-art sensor of light with single photon sensitivity and unprecedented photon number capability. The goal is to inspire students and guide them towards the analysis and comprehension of different physics phenomena with a series of experiments based on state-of-the art technologies, instruments and methods.
What’s inside
The SP5600 is a General purpose Power Supply and Amplification Unit, integrating up to two SiPMs in a mother & daughter architecture allowing for easy mounting and replacement of the sensors. The basic configuration features two channels with independent gain control up to 50 dB and provides the bias voltage (up to 100 V) to the sensors with gain stabilization. Each channel can provide a digital output generated by the fast leading edge discriminators. A timing coincidence of the two channels is also available.
The DT5720A is a CAEN Desktop Waveform digitizer housing 2 channels 12 bit 250 MS/s ADC with a dedicated charge integrating firmware for real time pulse processing.
The SP5606 is mini-spectrometer for gamma ray detection. The spectrometer is composed of a mechanical structure that houses a scintillating crystal, coupled to a dedicated SiPM. Three different crystals are available: CsI, LYSO and BGO. The spectrometer is equipped with a bottom support to allows an easy connection to the SP5600 via the splitter A315, to avoid saturation effects.
The Mod. A315 splits one input on two output signals. All the connectors are LEMO female type. The splitter is adapted for 50 Ohm lines. The device is completely passive (no power supply is required); the amplitude on each output is one half of that on the input.
The Gamma absorption tool allows to perform gamma attenuation measurements. It is a modular tool and its design allows an easy connection to the SP5606 bottom support.
