Design of a High Stable Measuring Circuit for Radioactive Pulses
방사선 펄스의 고안정 계측회로 설계
Abstract
The aim of this paper is to develop a high stable measuring device for radioactive pulses. The device consists of a high voltage supply unit using a fly-back converter principle, and a pulse detection unit for gamma-rays and neutrons. The high voltage supply unit designed can generate DC voltage up to 1,500v at 5V-input, and have a series voltage regulator to maintain the output voltage constantly, resulting in less than 1.63% of voltage regulation. The pulse detection parts consists of an active integrator, a pole-zero circuit, and a 3-stage amplifier of 60 dB, and its frequency bandwidth is from 37 Hz to 300 kHz. From the experimental results, it is confirmed that the measuring device can count at least 10,000 pulses in a second.
