Create/measure a long time difference with picosecond (ps) resolution.
This explains the configuration of creating a time difference with the T560 delay/pulse generator and measuring the time difference with the MCS8A multi-stop TDC/TOF.
◆T560 Delay/Pulse Generator - Delay time and pulse width can be specified individually for 4 channels, with settings possible in 10ps increments up to a maximum of 10 seconds. - Input/output delay (insertion delay): 21ns - Maximum trigger rate: 16MHz ◆MCS8A Multi-Stop TDC/TOF - An 8-input digitizer capable of recording multiple event times. - The time difference between START and STOP can be detected with a resolution of 80ps for up to 8.3 days. - STOP can be detected on the rising edge, falling edge, or both edges. - The threshold levels for START and STOP can be set in 1mV increments within the range of -1 to +1.5V. - A multi-event time digitizer with 80ps per time bin and no dead time. ◆MPA4T Combined TDC/TOF and Multi-Parameter MPA - A 5-input digitizer derived from the MCS8A, with 100ps per time bin. - Equipped with an 8-channel ADC input port, functioning as a multi-parameter data acquisition system (MPA). ⇒ Operates as a high-speed list mode system. ⇒ Each ADC input can also connect to multi-scalers or TOF devices.
basic information
To accurately and precisely create multiple pulses with a long time delay (delay) at a resolution of picoseconds (ps) and to measure that time difference accurately and precisely, general equipment cannot achieve the required precision or resolution at all. - The T560 Delay/Pulse Generator can set the delay time and pulse width individually for 4 channels in increments of 10 ps, up to a maximum of 10 seconds. - The MCS8A Multi-Stop TDC/TOF can detect the time difference between the START signal and the 8 input STOP signals in increments of 80 ps, up to a maximum of 8.3 days. The MPA4T can be used similarly to the MCS8A as a Multi-Stop TDC/TOF, except that it has 5 input STOP signals. - It can also be used as a Multi-Parameter Data Acquisition System (MPA) equipped with 8-channel ADC input ports. - As a combined unit of TDC/TOF and MPA, it can accommodate various data collection needs. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*

Detectors and sensors that detect charges proportional to the strength of energy are the measurement targets! ⇒ Cremat Corporation Charge Sensitive Preamp Product Information
Detectors and sensors that detect charge (charge) proportional to the strength of energy include APD (Avalanche Photodiode), PMT (Photomultiplier Tube: Photomultiplier), and MEMS capacitive accelerometers. In charge-sensitive preamplifiers, an output proportional to the amount of charge received from the detector is obtained. Gaussian shaping amplifiers shape long tail pulse waveforms into Gaussian function waveforms. Baseline restorers (recovery circuits) are modules that correct baseline shifts and are effective for high count rate input pulses. Using evaluation boards and aluminum housings makes it easy to verify inputs from the target detector. Finished products of charge-sensitive preamplifiers include those compatible with the high voltage bias of the detector and specialized products for photomultipliers and SiPMs. Finished products of Gaussian shaping amplifiers are available in eight types with different shaping times.
