First tests of multipurpose spectrometer

A new standalone compact spectrometer has been developed. It is based on the digital signal processor, sampling ADC and contains other components needed for spectra processing (i.e. RAM, Flash/ROM, real time clock, power supply block). Spectrometer is connected with a PC via high-speed USB 2.0 bus....

Description
Summary:A new standalone compact spectrometer has been developed. It is based on the digital signal processor, sampling ADC and contains other components needed for spectra processing (i.e. RAM, Flash/ROM, real time clock, power supply block). Spectrometer is connected with a PC via high-speed USB 2.0 bus. It is designed as a multipurpose device, which is planned to be used for many applications such as measurements of Rn activities, energy of detected particles by CdTe pixel detector or for coincidence measurements. Results of the first spectroscopic tests (with Am+Pu+Cm alpha source, measurements of Rn progenies) are presented.
