EG&G Ortec 760950 Dart Portable Multichannel Analyzer MCA

 Multichannel Analyzers (MCAs) are the workhorse instruments in many scientific measurements; in research, teaching, and industry; for both nuclear and non-nuclear applications. The MCA, in simplest form, analyses a stream of voltage pulses and sorts them into a histogram or “spectrum” of number of events versus pulse-height which may often relate to energy or time of arrival. The stored spectrum may then be displayed and analysed.
