Power Supply
-
The Power Supply Systems are the heart of any experiment. They provide the High voltage and Low voltage required by the detectors and by the related front-end electronics. The quality of the power supply is critical to obtain the best performance from the set-up. The sensibility of modern detectors, in fact, make them susceptible to any even small variation in the power supply, and so features like low Noise, low Ripple and high stability become essential in the design of a performing power supply system. Strong of 40 years of collaboration with the most important research labs worldwide CAEN offers today sophisticated High Voltage Power Supply and Low Voltage Power Supply Systems. The demonstration of this successful long-standing tradition is the “CMS Crystal Award 2009” that CAEN received for the development and production of the power system for the CMS tracker. CAEN offers a wide selection of Power Supplies in different form factors and standards:- For smaller set-ups Standalone or modular (NIM / VME) products or are the ideal fit.- For bigger set-ups, where a high number of High voltages and Low voltages is required, the Mainframe Systems and Boards (up to 48 channels/board, up to 768 channels in a single Mainframe) are the most recommended.

Single And Dual 32k Digital MCA & Pulse Processor
Hexagon Family
-
Hexagon is a high precision 32k MCA available in single and dual input channel versions. This compact, high performance desktop MCA includes features such as an input stage for signal conditioning, a fast analog-to-digital converter (ADC), digital signal processing algorithms, High Voltage and Preamplifier outputs for detector bias and preamp power. Hexagon is ideally suited for applications using high energy resolution semiconductor detectors such as HPGe, Silicon, CZT as well as scintillation detectors such as NaI and LaBr3. It can manage both positive and negative signals from resistive feedback or transistor reset preamplifier detectors as well as signals coming from PMT anodes.

Digitizer
742 Family
-
The 742 is the Switched Capacitor Digitizer family, based on the DRS4 chip by PSI, with the highest sampling frequency (5GS/s) and channel density. It can record very fast signals from scintillators coupled to PMTs, Silicon Photomultipliers, APD, Diamond detectors and others, and save them with high efficiency and precision for advanced timing analysis. The 742 family has an additional channel (two channels in case of VME boards) which can be used as time reference for time of fight measurements. The resolution of this kind of measurements can reach up to 50 ps.
