Abstract:
A parallel radiation detector comprising:a plurality of radiation detecting elements;a plurality of preamplifiers for converting signals from said plurality of radiation detecting elements into voltage signals;a signal processing device for processing said voltage signals from said plurality of preamplifiers;a main control device for controlling said signal processing device to analyze said voltage signals;a display device for displaying analyzed results from said signal processing device;a storage device for storing signals;a plurality of reset circuits corresponding to said plurality of preamplifiers, each of said reset circuits for generating a reset signal for returning the corresponding one of said plurality of preamplifiers to an initial state thereof when said voltage signal from the corresponding one of said plurality of preamplifiers reaches a predetermined voltage; andan inhibitor circuit for generating an inhibit signal for inhibiting said signal processing device from receiving and processing said voltage signals from said plurality of preamplifiers temporarily, based on said reset signal.
