Overview

The “Emulation kit” is based on the CAEN Digital Detector-Emulator (DT4800) together with the Digital Multichannel Analyzer (DT5770). This kit allows to perform a series of lab experiments without using a radioactive source and a detector but simulating the signals produced by the interaction of particles with the detecting unit.
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

DT4800 photo
The DT4800, called Micro Digital Detector Emulator, is the most compact and cost effective model of the Detector Emulators family. It is available only in a one channel version and it is particularly suited for simple emulation needs and educational purposes. The unit features one analog output and one digital input. As a Pulser it can generate exponential decay signals with programmable Rise Time and Fall Time up to a rate of 1 Mcps. The rate can be fixed or it can follow a Poissonian distribution.
DT5770 photo
The DT5770 is a compact portable Digital MCA for Gamma spectroscopy. It is suited for high energy resolution semiconductor detectors, like HPGe and Silicon Drift Detector, connected to a Charge Sensitive Preamplifier. The unit can also properly operate directly connected to a PMT with inorganic scintillators (e.g. Nal or Csl scintillators), provided exponential pulse shape and decay time above 200 ns. It integrates analog front-end with programmable gain and possible AC coupling.

Emulation Control Software

blankSoftware interface is particularly indicated for quickly setting the instruments. The GUI Interface enables the Emulator to generate an analog output: the user can set the analog output signal rate, the amplitude, the rise and fall time of the exponential shape, and the noise contributions. The GUI also allows to acquire the generated signal with an MCA. The user can set the features for the analog input signal, trigger with a single threshold or with a trapezoidal mode, use the charge integration or the trapezoidal as energy filter, control the baseline calculation and the pile-up rejection.
