Electronics for HPGe Detectors

ORTEC offers the largest selection in the industry of electronics for all detector types. From modular electronics and PC plug-in Multi Channel Buffer (MCB) boards to completely integrated desktop spectrometers, ORTEC has a solution that is right for every application and budget. Even if you don’t have ORTEC hardware now, we have a solution for you. ORTEC’s unique MatchMaker provides a seamless interface to many Canberra, Nuclear Data, and Silena ADC’s.

Analog Spectroscopy Systems
ORTEC’s most popular analog spectroscopy system includes the 659 HV bias supply (Model 660 dual supply), 672 high grade spectroscopy amplifier, and either a 919E NIM-based MCB or TRUMP-PCI-8K plug-in board. For low-rate counting from multiple detectors, the 919E 4-input multiplexed ADC is an ideal solution. The price per channel can not be matched in any other available system.

Many other amplifiers and other electronic components are available.   

Digital Electronic Systems
ORTEC has led the industry in the use of DSP-based spectrometers in the counting laboratory. It all started with the introduction of the DSPEC in 1996 – the world’s most popular digital spectrometer. Today we also offer the DSPEC Plus desktop unit and the digiDART portable spectrometer.

DSPEC PlusThe ORTEC DSPEC Plus, offers a complete spectroscopy system in a single, desktop box.
The ORTEC DSPEC Plus, offers a complete spectroscopy system in a single, desktop box. Inside is the computer controlled digital filter, high voltage supply, histogram memory, and computer interface. A completely computer controlled HV circuit, Multi Nuclide MDA hardware preset, and a Zero Dead Time mode for samples with count rates that change during the acquisition period (such as occurs with short-lived isotopes).

digiDARTDigiDART includes a completely self-contained unit that does not need a PC to operate.
DigiDART includes a completely self-contained unit that does not need a PC to operate. The user can configure the spectrometer, acquire data, view the spectrum, and store it off to memory for later analysis on a computer, all from the front panel keypad and display.

The digiDART is also uses Plug-and-Play technology in the form of USB-connection to the computer. Simply plug the digiDART into the USB port, and the computer automatically configures the unit for use. Nothing could be simpler for the operator.
