description
XDAS-V3 is a modular system of boards for data acquisition in
X-ray line-scan, multi-view and CT systems. It consists of detector head (DH) boards, signal processing (SP) boards and data
interface board.
A single energy DH board has 64 detector channels. A dual
energy DH board has 64 low energy channels and 64 high energy channels. Detector boards can be butted end-to-end to
form a continuous array over 10 metres in length.
An optional low energy filter is used for enhanced low and high
energy separation.
DH boards with 0.4 mm, 0.8 mm and 2.5 mm detector pitch are
also available. See separate data sheets.
