Figure 2.7 Output frequency versus input voltage for typical HFC.

Channel 1 to incorporate the actual gate times in the telemetered signal.

This signal also

went to the tape recorder to initiate its timing sequence and to the Project 1.10 equipment
to provide them with a zero-time mark.
To accomplish the gamma-ray measurement, the Cal detector output was integrated
in an RC circuit with a time constant long compared to the prompt-gamma-ray pulse and
the resulting voltage used to actuate a peak-measuring circuit. The input to the normally
open peak-measuring circuit was gated off at 10 usec after gamma-ray arrival by a pulse
generated by the gamma-ray pulse itself, so that the voltage held in the peak-measuring
circuit was the value of the integrated detector current at 10 usec. The negative output
from the peak measuring circuit controlled a converter set to free run at 30 ke such that ~
