Product catalog summary
Overview
The SR200 Series Boxcar Averager System by Stanford Research Systems is a modular platform designed for acquiring and analyzing fast analog signals. It includes a NIM-compatible mainframe and various modules to customize the system according to specific needs. The system supports gate widths from 100 ps to 150 µs and repetition rates up to 50 kHz, with both analog and digital outputs.

Key Features
  • Gated Integration: Recovers fast, repetitive analog signals by amplifying and integrating signals during a predetermined gate time, reducing noise and interference.
  • Boxcar Averaging: Improves signal-to-noise ratio by averaging the output of the gated integrator over multiple shots.
  • Analog and Digital Measurements: Can operate independently or with a computer for automated measurements. The SR245 module provides GPIB and RS-232 interfaces for computer connectivity.

Modules
  • SR280 NIM Mainframe and Display Module: Houses up to nine NIM modules and includes power supply and display meters.
  • SR250 Gated Integrator Module: Offers gate widths from 2 ns to 15 µs and supports averaging up to 10,000 samples.
  • SR255 Fast Sampler Module: Provides gated integration with gate widths as short as 100 ps.
  • SR245 Computer Interface Module: Adds analog and digital data acquisition capabilities with RS-232 and GPIB interfaces.
  • SR240A Quad 350 MHz Preamplifier Module: Amplifies low-level signals with four channels, each with a gain of 5.
  • SR200 Gate Scanner Module: Automates waveform recovery with selectable scan times.
  • SR235 Analog Processor Module: Performs various signal processing functions without a computer.
  • SR275 Display Module: Provides display meters for users with existing NIM bins.
  • SR272 Data Acquisition Software: Windows-compatible software for data acquisition and analysis.

The system consists of a NIM compatible mainframe and modules which can be selected to tailor a system to individual requirements. The SR200 series is flexible enough to handle gate widths from 100 ps to 150 ìs, repetition rates up to 50 kHz, and has both analog and digital outputs. With its low-noise inputs and low-drift outputs, the SR200 series is the standard for gated integrators and boxcar averagers. Gated Integration Gated integrators and boxcar averagers are designed to recover fast, repetitive, analog signals. In a typical application, a time “gate” of predetermined width is precisely positioned relative to an internal or external trigger to coincide with your signal. A gated integrator amplifies and integrates the signal that is present during the time the gate is open, ignoring noise and interference that may be present at other times. Boxcar Averaging Boxcar Averaging refers to the practice of averaging the output of the gated integrator over many shots of the experiment. Since any signal present during the gate will add linearly, while noise will add in a “random walk” fashion as SRS Boxcar Systems Gated Integrators and Boxcar Averagers SR200 Series .

Analog and Digital Measurements The SR200 series is designed to work without a computer, allowing you to quickly “tune-up” your experiment, or with a computer, automating complex measurement sequences. Modules like the SR235 Analog Processor perform signal processing functions (e.g., ratioing and background subtraction) without the need for a computer, while the SR245 Computer...
