Abstract :
We discuss a new approach to the design of single channel analyzers (SCAs) for high rate nuclear spectroscopy with an emphasis on accelerator-based XAFS applications. A brief overview of the entire spectroscopy system and a detailed description of the SCA circuit design are given together with some insight into the application. The advantages of this instrument are then highlighted and the experimental results are presented
