I3200 - 32-Channel Charge Integrator Digital Electrometer
Description
The I3200 is a high-performance 32-channel gated-integrator electrometer designed for detailed monitoring and analysis of multi-segment detector arrays. With a dynamic current/charge range spanning from 0.1 pA to 100 µA and software-selectable feedback capacitors, it concurrently captures data from 32 detector channels with high precision. Key features include optional integrated high-voltage biasing, dual-mode charge/current integration, ultra-low noise (typical input noise <10 fA rms for 1 s integration), and ultra-fast fiber-optic data output. The I3200 is built for advanced applications such as multi-electrode ionization chambers, beam-profile grids, and segmented photodiode/detector arrays where synchronized readout, high throughput, and robust integration are essential.

Fiber Optics
Pyramid transmits measurement data over fiber-optic cable instead of copper, keeping signals immune to electrical interference. Our radiation-hard fibers have minimal light attenuation, enabling fast, reliable messaging across enormous distances.
IG2 EPICS Support
Integrate device data collection and configuration into an EPICS system, without writing a single line of code using IG2.
- Runs on Windows and Debian Linux
