Product Specification

Description

The function of the BG51 radiation sensor is based on an array of customized PIN diodes. The integrated pulse discriminator with a temperature compensated threshold level provides true TTL signal output. The BG51 is capable of detecting beta radiation (electrons), gamma radiation (photons) and X-rays.

The performance of the BG51 solid state sensor, in combination with high immunity to electrostatic fields make it a good choice for new state-of-the-art designs as well as for upgrading existing designs.
