Abstract

A description is given of a tuning-type detector which has a tuning frequency of 400 kHz with a bandwidth of ±45 kHz, damping the oscillation within 20 μs. The detector has a sensitivity less than 1 pC for a test object of several hundred pF in capacitance without interference from the broadcasting radio frequency. The pulse resolution of 20 μs makes it possible to count pulses at rates less than 3000 pulse/s. For the elimination of external pulse noises, a pulse signal gate system discriminating logically between signal and noise with the difference of pulse polarity was developed along with a balanced detection circuit. An automatic measurement system aided by a personal computer was also developed for the speed-up and high reliability of the measurement
