Abstract

It is described the global architecture of a digital pulse processing system for high resolution X-Ray spectroscopy based on single photon detection and photon energy measurement. The center of the system is executed in a cutting edge half breed gadget (Xilinx Zynq) that coordinates a FPGA texture alongside a double center 32-bits processor (ARM Cortex). It is likewise portrayed the embraced procedure to manage high info photon rates while safeguarding a decent vitality determination. The advanced execution of the system is extreme controlled by few key useful pieces including two limited drive reaction channels and an algorithmic state machine. It is presented a numerical procedure to optimize the digital filters according to different constrains and goals, and it is described the analysis of experimental data to obtain the necessary information for the optimization of the system.
