The device separates the two components of a voltage pulse, namely, th
e pedestal u(p) and the signal u(s), which is meassured with respect t
o the pedestal top, and determines the ratio u(s)/u(p). The ratio circ
uit includes a ten-bit ADC. The ratio is measured in three ranges and
can vary between 0.0024 and 0.999. The time of ratio measurement is 12
0 musec. The rms noise in terms of the input signal is 25 muV.
