Use of the DD2 Amplifier with the RIDL 200-and 400-Channel Analyzers

The use of the DD^3 amplifier with the RIDL 200- and 400-channel analyzers has been found advantageous for certain applications. In order to use the DD2, certain modifications to the input circuits of the Analog-to Digital Converter Unit are necessary. In addition, the modifications improved the linearity of the analyzer in the low channels. Using the analyzer with the RIDL Type 30-7 Scintillation Pulse Amplifier, it was noted that non-linearity of as much as 5 or 6 channels was present below channel 20. With the modifications made and with the use of the DD2, this non-linearity has been reduced to less than 1/2 channel.
