What is a Multichannel Analyzer? Multichannel Analyzers (MCAs) are an invaluable element in spectroscopy systems. A MCA consists of two basic parts: the analog-to-digital converter (ADC) and the computer-type addressable memory. Berkeley Nucleonics offers several MCA options for users to perfect a system that caters…
