The present invention relates to a method of determining pulse height distribution by using an apparatus comprising: an analogue to digital pulses height categorisation unit comparing the pulse to analogue threshold voltages and counting each event within each pulse height category using a micro controller. The method may comprise the steps of i) selecting a first set of threshold voltages, ii) performing a first measurement using the first set of threshold voltages, iii) selecting a new set of threshold voltages different from the first set of threshold voltages, iv) performing a new measurement using the new set of threshold voltages, v) determining cell size distribution based on the first measurement and the new measurement. The present invention further relates to an apparatus comprising an analogue to digital pulses height categorisation unit comparing the pulse to analogue threshold voltages, a micro controller configured for counting each event within each pulse height category, the micro controller further configured for i) selecting a first set of threshold voltages, ii) performing a first measurement using the first set of threshold voltages, iii) selecting a new set of threshold voltages different from the first set of threshold voltages, iv) performing a new measurement using the new set of threshold voltages, v) determining cell size distribution based on the first measurement and the new measurement. |
