    The Model 575A uses an automatically gated baseline restorer (BLR) whose system resolution is virtually independent of the input count rate. The gated baseline restorer includes an automatic noise discriminator for operating the sensing circuitry that typically establishes the baseline reference for multi-channel analyzers. Spectrometer performance often depends on the accuracy of the BLR threshold setting. The Model 575A features a convenient automatic threshold control that often gives results that are as good or better than manual operation by an experienced operator.

    The Type 575A pulse shaping network produces a semi-Gaussian output pulse, improving noise performance and reducing amplifier resolution time. The shorter resolution time enables higher count rates than amplifiers with traditional RC pulse shaping networks. The Type 575A provides a 10 V linear output with excellent DC stability for both unipolar and bipolar output pulses.

    pulse shape

    When the peak time is equal to2.2τ,50% pulse width equals3.3τ,0.1% level when the pulse width is equal to the peak time4.0times, it is semi-Gaussian in all ranges. bipolar crossover = 1.5τ。

    restorer

    A gated active baseline stabilizer with automatic threshold circuitry provides the threshold level as a function of signal noise to the baseline restorer discriminator.
