１． Overview

Digital spectrometer APU101 (hereinafterreferred to as this device) is a digital spectrometer that integrates a high-

voltage power supply, preamplifier power supply, and MCA (multi-channel analyzer) into one. Since it is amulti-channel

analyzer (MCA) equipped with a real-time digital signal processing function (DSP), waveform shaping processing by an

analog circuit is not required, and a very high-speed A / D converter is used to directly digitalize the signal from the

preamplifier. It is converted to and processed by the trapezoidal filter in real time by the pipeline architecture by FPGA.

This provides excellent energy and time resolution and has outstanding stability even at high count rates (100 kcps and

above).

This device can be connected to a personal computer (hereinafter referred to as PC) with a LAN cable, and by

using the attached application APP101 (hereinafter referred to as this application), parameters can be set, data can be

read,andmeasureddatacanbeanalyzedandimported.

* This manual describes normal products and may differ from the one you are using depending on the presence or

absence ofoptions,special specifications,andspecificationsofthehigh-voltagepowersupplymodule.

３． Appearance

Image1 APU101 Front

1. LED EMO (red) Lights during emergency.

POS (orange) Lights when the HV is positive.

NEG (green) Lights when the HV is negative.

If both POS and NEG are off, it is in the high-Z state. It blinks long when

stepping up, blinks shortly when stepping down, and lights up when the set

voltage is reached.

2. RESET This button is for restoring the Ethernet connection when communication is lost.

Used when Ethernet reconnection (link-up processing) is required in terms of

hardware.

3. EMERGENCY It is an emergency HV stop button. It is provided for emergencies such as when

communication with the PC becomes impossible.

If you want to turn off the high voltage in an emergency, press and hold for 3

seconds or longer. The voltage is stepped down according to the sweep voltage

rate (V / min.). If all the HV LEDs are turned off, you can confirm that the high

voltage has dropped to 400V or less.

If you want to cancel the emergency state, exit the application when the high

voltage is sufficiently low → turn off the power of the main unit → wait for 1

minute or more → turn on the power → start the application.

4. HIGH-VOLTAGE Monitor for high voltage. Ignore the polarity and use 400V / LED.

Each LED lights up approximately every 400V.

5. DEAD-TIME Monitor for dead-time. 5 % / LED

6. CLR * Unused

LEMO 00.250 compatible connector for external signal (LVTTL signal) input.

7. CLK * Unused

8. GATE LEMO 00.250 compatible connector for external gate signal input.

Input an LVTTL or TTL signal. Enables data acquisition while input is High.

9. VETO LEMO 00.250 compatible connector for external VETO signal input.

Input an LVTTL or TTL signal. Disables data acquisition during High.

10. AUX1、AUX2 * Unused

External signal for expansion LEMO 00.250 compatible connector

11. LAN RJ45 connector for connecting an Ethernet cable.

The factory IP address is 192.168.10.128.

12. POWER This is the main power switch of this device.

The "O" side is OFF and the "I" side is ON.

* Do not switch during high voltage power output. It may cause a malfunction of

this device and connected devices.

13. DC-IN It is a power input plug. Connect the included AC adapter. As shown in the figure

below, attach the attached connector disconnection prevention device.

Image3 Connector dropout prevention device

14. F.G If you cannot use a grounded outlet, or if the ground is weak, connect a ground

wire to this terminal.

15. POWER Dsub 9-pin connector for preamplifier power supply.

It supplies ± 12 V and ± 24 V by pin allocation conforming to NIM standard.

16. MONI BNC connector for filtered waveform output.

The voltage range that can be output is ± 1 V at the end of 1 MΩ

17. INPUT BNC connector for preamplifier output signal input.

The voltage range that can be input is ± 1 V.

Input impedance is about 1 kΩ.

18. HV-OUT SHV connector for high voltage output.

Output impedance is about 200kΩ.

* Never connect or disconnect the cable during high voltage output or when the

power is on, as it may damage not only this device but also the detector side.

19. HV-SHTD LEMO connector for detector bias shutdown signal input.

Input up to ± 24 V is possible.

Input impedance is about 13 k.
