Development of a Nuclear Energy Spectrum Signal Generator

Abstract

Abstract A digital nuclear pulse and digital nuclear energy spectrum signal generator was designed using FPGA and digital frequency synthesizer (DDS). It also includes slip signal, triangle wave, square wave, sine wave output. By randomly sampling the amplitude information and time information of the reference spectrum line, the complex algorithm of nuclear signal reproduction is avoided, and the simulation of the nuclear signal random pulse and nuclear energy spectrum (137Cs gamma spectrum) is realized. The signal amplitude is adjustable from 0.1V to 10V, and the frequency is adjustable from 10Hz to 10kHz.
