CR10 - Spectroscopy Amplifier for Charge Sensitive Pulse Shaping

The CR10 pulse amplifier is a versatile tool designed to amplify and shape pulses generated from a range of radiation detectors, making it the perfect solution for pulse processing and spectroscopy applications. It features pre-amplification and shaping capabilities, as well as the added convenience of factory configuration, eliminating the need for on-site setup.

Built for moderate count rate applications where charge per pulse is critical, the CR10 is compatible with readout detectors requiring a bias voltage.

For applications demanding accurate pulse height measurement at a count rate exceeding 10kHz, we recommend the optional baseline restorer module (BR). This powerful addition ensures optimal results, making the CR10 the ideal solution for demanding pulse processing applications.

For counting applications, see our C400 for a cost-effective solution.

For pre-amplifiers without shaping see the CP15 for NaI, and CP10 for faster detectors.
