Abstract :
A prototype electronics package of amplifier, ADC, pulser, data-bus interface, bias supply and low voltage supply has been developed to process high resolution data from rugged intrinsic germanium detectors with high reliability in a harsh environment. This sturdy modular package attachable to the dewar of a rugged detector oriented horizontally or downward degrades detector energy resolution at 1332 KeV less than 0.25 KeV.
