current Subject:

constant fraction discriminator

Do the cronologic measurement cards offer an integrated CFD (Constant Fraction Discriminator)?

cronologic answer:

Since our measurement boards are designed for a wide range of applications, we do not integrate CFDs into our standard models. In principle, however, it is of course possible to operate our boards with external CFDs, which is also done by many of our customers. The threshold function (threshold comparator) is in most cases already sufficient to pre-sort the pulses on the input side. This is because the digital threshold is adjustable for each input and can alternatively be configured for positive or negative pulses. Please refer to the operating instructions for more information.

In case extremely high demands are made regarding the comparator, an external device may be used.
