Abstract

A programmable log-linear amplifier has been developed for nuclear channels. The amplifier can be programmed for logarithmic, linear or log-linear mode of operation. In the log-linear mode, the amplifier operates partially in log mode and automatically switches to linear mode at any preset point. The log-linear mode is used for wide range operation of nuclear channels and, hence, the amplifier will improve the fault finding capabilities of the nuclear channels used in power range. The amplifier is tested at nuclear reactor and the results are found in very good agreement with the designed specifications. This article presents design and construction of the amplifier and field test results.
