Abstract: A channel multiplexing method for reading array detector signals includes: dividing array detectors into M groups, at least two detectors being in each group; array coding the read channel to read M row signals and N column signals, which means when a signal is outputted at the detector in row a, column b, the signals of row a and column b are outputted correspondingly; connecting the readout signals of-the row and the column to different positions of two transmission lines respectively; determining the source row number and column number of the signal on the basis of the time difference between the time of signal reaching two ends of the transmission line, and marking the source detector from which the signal is generated on the basis of two time differences of the row signal and the column signal.

Abstract: A channel multiplexing method for reading out a detector signal is provided, including steps: grouping L detectors to form a first source signal and a second source signal; respectively introducing L detector signals into a first signal transmission line including two readout channels A and B and a second signal transmission line including two readout channels C and D, and providing a first signal delay unit and a second signal delay unit on the first signal transmission line and the second signal transmission line; and symbolizing source detectors for forming signals according to pulses of the four readout channels A, B, C and D, and obtaining final pulse information.

Abstract: A method is for acquiring a time point where a glimmering pulse passes over a threshold. The method includes: converting a relationship between a pulse and a threshold into high and low level signals; segmenting output level signals. For a phase where a pulse signal passes over and is higher than a preset threshold and a phase where a pulse signal passes over and is lower than the preset threshold, the two phases respectively include several time points generated by several jumps, and the time point where a pulse passes over a threshold is recorded as any one jump time point or a weighted value of any two or more jump time points. By selecting one jump time point or weighting any two or more jump time points, a more accurate time point where a pulse actually passes over a threshold can be obtained.

Abstract: A crystal-array module includes a number of unit crystal strips. The three-dimensional shape of the crystal-array module is a frustum or a combination of a right quadrangular prism and the frustum. The frustrum includes a first bottom face coupled with a photoelectric device and a first top face opposed to the first bottom face. The area of the first bottom face is smaller than that of the first top face. A fabrication method of the crystal-array module includes joining cut unit crystal strips or cut unit crystal strip arrays together.
