am trying to find a program that takes as an input from a card 6024E the pulse-signal from a scintillator with 1024 channels and high limit voltage 8volt,and gives an output the spectrum in a diagram counts/channel.if anyone can help me i would be gratefulas far as the triggering is concerned,my profesor told me that the triggering is done by the system that i will use on its own and i don't have to be concerned about it.and about the noise,i will probably measure the background before i put the sources,so don't think about it too.(also,the pulse decay you asked me is 250ns)

i am in the lab today.i must say that your code seems to be good but i cannot check if it gives the right result because i don't have the DAQ part.i will be here all day today.if you have any idea let me know

I presume there square pulses which are zero if there is no valid value.
With your pulses it is a bit more difficult, but I will think about it today.
I have to travel to Berlin today because of our research here, so I won't have the time to write code, but I will be online in two days or so.

i created a program that i attach to this message.your code works very good.my problem is in the DAQ part that i created.more specifickly,the program takes the pulse but it only takes one pulse and then stops.i have problem how to make it repeat and take pulses continuously.have a look at it if you can and tell me about.

I'm not sure wheather you like to measure the flank of your pulses as well. As far as I have understood your problem you are only interested in the maxima of your pulses. Thus, maybe should reconsider your triggering.

Especially when the signals are at random which they are I presume.

But I'll try to propose to look at this problem from the slightly different point of view:
In many applications involving scintillators, PM's, ADC's and pulse peak detecting we do not really need the last one. Instead of detailed analysis of the pulse form in certain conditions it's much more easier to use a resettable analog integrater before the ADC - in other words, aquiring only resulting area beneath the pulse (usually this represents electric charge) and not it's form. Also this frequently reffered as QDC - charge (Q) to digital converter. In this case the rate of conversion will be one per pulse which greatly simplifies the final task. Full information about scintillater response pulse can be intere
sted if one wants information about decay time(s), pulse components and so on. For all others integral pulse area looks informative enough for me.
