Table 2.1: Mod. N568B/ N568LC Technical Features
NAME
N568B N568LC
INPUTS
INPUTS 0..15
Positive or negative pulses with rise time
≥
18 ns, max. amplitude: 8 V (absolute
value); 50
Ω
impedance
H. S. CAENET IN/OUT
Std. CAENET protocol signals
OUTPUTS
OUT
100
Ω
impedance. Unipolar, dynamic range ±8 V max (1 Mohm load); polarity
as selected in common with XOUT and MUXOUT.
XOUT
100
Ω
impedance. Unipolar, further 10x fixed amplification of the OUT value,
dynamic range ±4 V max into 100
Ω
load; polarity as selected in common with
OUT and MUXOUT.
FOUT
100
Ω
impedance. Unipolar, 100 ns
Differentiation Time Constant, ±4 V
max into 100
Ω
load. Risetime: 25 ns
typically.
Gain factor: 7 to 10 for non inverting
configuration, 20 to 30 (approx.) for
inverting configuration.
50
Ω
impedance. Unipolar, 100 ns
Differentiation Time Constant, ±4 V
max into 100
Ω
load. Risetime: 25 ns
typically.
Gain factor: 7 to 10 for both inverting
and non inverting configuration
MUX O
100
Ω
impedance. Unipolar, ±8 V max (1 Mohm load); polarity as selected in
common with OUT. Selected channel is the last accessed via H.S. CAENET.
Can be disabled via CAENET.
MUX F
100
Ω
impedance. Unipolar, amplitude 85% approx. of FOUT amplitude.
Selected channel is the last accessed via H.S. CAENET. Can be disabled via
CAENET.
PWR MAN CTR
Std. CAENET Manual Controller supply voltage
GENERAL
INTEGRAL NON

typ. for any shaping time)
EQUIVALENT INPUT
NOISE

< 25 µV (Gain=100; 3 µs shaping
time)
INTERCHANNEL
CROSSTALK
Output in one OUT (FOUT) channel affects any other OUT (FOUT) channel by
no more than -45 dB (at Gain =1 and 5 V input signal)
GAIN RANGE
adjustable from 0.15 to 480 (see § 3.2.5)
SHAPING TIME
selectable time constant of 0.2 µs, 1 µs, 3 µs and 6 µs
COMMON OFFSET

mV with Negative Output Polarity
POLE ZERO
adjustable on 256 steps to match preamp tails in a range from 50 µs to 500 µs
