A type of integrated multiple-single-channel analyzer (IMSCA) is described. The IMSCA works with an input pulse of 2-20 pC, and it can be directly connected to a scintillation detector, which eliminates the need for a linear amplifier. It consists of 64 input ports, so 1-64 detectors can be set by users according to different requirements. Two energy regions for each input channel can be simultaneously analyzed. Another advantage of the IMSCA is that it integrates with a high-speed pulse signal acquisition card and transmits data to the computer through the network. The maximum pulse through-rate is 1.4 MHz, and linearity can reach 0.1%. This IMSCA has been successfully used in enrichment detecting of nuclear fuel rod.

This paper describes a 64 channel signal generator/analyzer module that is useful for verification and testing of digital circuits. It can perform logic analyzer function and signal generator function at the same time. The 64 Channel module is implemented with single FPGA chip for miniaturization, and an USB interface is used to increase portability of the module. Multiple modules can be used in parallel for the verification of large scale circuits. Moreover, since the module is implemented as a PC based system, one can configure convenient GUI(Graphic User Interface) environment.

In this paper, an implementation of concurrent backoff delay process on a single chip with IEEE 802.15.4 hardware and 8051 processor core that can be used for analyzing the interference on IEEE 802.15.4 channels due to WiFi traffics is studied. The backoff delay process of IEEE 802.15.4 CSMA-CA algorithm is explained. The characteristics of random number generator, timer, and CCA register included in the single chip are described with their control procedure in order to implement the process. A concurrent backoff delay process to evaluate multiple IEEE 802.15.4 channels is proposed, and a method to service the associated tasks at sequentially ordered backoff delay events occurring on the channels is explained. For the implementation of the concurrent backoff delay process on a single chip IEEE 802.15.4 hardware, the elements for the single channel backoff delay process and their control procedure are used to be extended to multiple channels with little modification. The medium access delay on each channel, which is available after execution of the concurrent backoff delay process, is displayed on the LCD of an IEEE 802.15.4 channel analyzer. The experimental results show that we can easily identify the interference on IEEE 802.15.4 channels caused by WiFi traffics in comparison with the way displaying measured channel powers.

This paper introduces a gamma-ray measurement system for a transportable tomography which is applicable for an industrial process diagnosis. The gamma-ray measurement system consists of pulse mode operating 72 channel CsI detectors, main AMP-pulse shaper, single channel analyzer, counter and control PC. The CsI crystal is coupled with a PIN diode which is connected to an amplifier and pulse shaper. For a compact design, the amplifier and pulse shaping circuit are included in a single package. 36 sets of CsI detectors are connected to a multi-channel counter through single channel analyzers. A computer controls and collects data from two multi-channel counters. This configuration results in 72 channel counting system in total. The CT rotator and radiation measurement system are controlled by a PC with LabVIEW program. Tomographic data were measured for a phantom by the measurement system and transportable gamma-ray CT. From the experimental data image reconstructions were performed by ML-EM algorithm. The result showed that the CsI detector system can be a suitable component for transportable gamma-ray CT system.

Inthis apper wa analyzed the channel-hot-electron programming characteristics of the single-poly EEPROM with different control gate and drain structures. The single-poly EEPROM uses the p$^{+}$/n$^{+}$-diffusion in the n-well as a control gate instead of the second poly-silicon. The program and erase characteristics of the single-poly EEPROM were verified using the two-dimensional device simulator, MEDICI. The single-poly EEPROM was fabricated using 0.8$\mu$m ASIC CMOS process, and its CHE programming characteristics were measured using HP4155 parameteric analyzer and HP8110 pulse gnerator. Especially we investigated the CHE programming characteristics of the single-poly EEPROM with the p$^{+}$-diffusion or n$^{+}$-diffusion in the n-well as a control gate and the LDD or single-drain structure. The single-poly EEPROM with p$^{+}$-diffusion in the n-well as a control gate and single-drain structure was programmed to about VT$\thickapprox$5V with VDS=6V, VCG=12V(1ms pulse width).th).

본 논문에서 제안된 스펙트럼 분석장치는 개루프 방식의 VCO를 모듈러 함수를 이용한 PLL 주파수 합성기로 대치시킴으로써 단일루우프의 주파수 합성기로 개개의 다른 주파수 대역 및 채널간격을 얻을 수 있었다. 스펙트럼의 추출은 자승검파방식을 이용함으로써 종래의 포락선 검파방식보다 입력감도를 개선할 수 있었고 Z80 마이크로프로세서를 이용한 제어기는 주파수 합성기를 제어하는 동시에 추출된 스펙트럼을 메모리에 저장함으로써 비주기성 신호의 분석을 가능케 하였다.

핵연료 건전성 점검을 위하여 다중채널분석기로 얻은 감마선 스펙트럼을 자동으로 빨리 분석하는 프로그램을 개발하였다. 핵연료의 건전성은 실시간 감시와 주기적인 시료 분석을 통한 원자로냉각재내의 방사선준위로 확인된다. 영광 3·4 호기의 경우, 실시간 감시 계통인 프로세스 방사선 감시 계통(PRMS)이 핵연료의 건전성을 확인한다. 현재, PRMS의 스펙트로미터 채널의 신호처리기는 단일채널 분석기이어서 오직 하나의 방사성핵종만을 파악할 수 있다. 따라서 PRMS를 개선하기 위해서는 단일채널분석기를 다중채널분석기로 대치하여야 한다. 이 프로그램은 실시간 모드와 수동모드로 실행되며, 모든 과정을 자동으로 수행한다. 미 국가표준국의 혼합 표준 선원에 대한 시험 결과는 상용 다중채널분석기인 Canberra System 100의 결과와 잘 일치하였다. 결론적으로 개발된 프로그램은 원자력발전소의 감마선 감시에 사용할 수 있을 것으로 보인다.

A single-beam gamma densitometer is utilized to measure the average void fraction in a small diameter stainless steel pipe under critical flow conditions. A typical design of a single-beam gamma densitometer is composed of a sealed gammaray source, a collimator, a scintillation detector, and a data acquisition system that includes an amplifier and a single channel analyzer. It is operated in the count mode and can be calibrated with a test pipe and various types of phantoms made of polyethylene. A good average void fraction is obtained for a small diameter pipe with various flow regimes of the core, annular, stratified, and bubbly flows. Several factors influencing the performance of the gamma densitometer are examined, including the distance between the source and the detector, the measuring time, and the ambient temperature. The void fraction is measured during an adiabatic downward two-phase critical flow in a vertical pipe. The test pipe has an inner diameter of 10.9 mm and a thickness of 3.2 mm. The average void fraction was reasonably measured for a two-phase critical flow in the presence of nitrogen gas.
