Quantity Description Units Comments
I Current nC/Min
Electrical current delivered to readout in
response to radiation incident upon
detector.
Q Charge nC
Electrical charge delivered to readout in
response to radiation incident upon
detector.
ADC A-D Counts Counts
Electrometer output level returned by
A-D Converter during dose or dose rate
measurement.
ADZ A-D Zero Counts
Electrometer output level returned by
A-D Converter while operating in the
dose rate measurement mode and in
the absence of radiation. A-D Zero
levels are field programmable via
Customization Software.
QG Charge Gain nC / Count
Overall electrical charge gain of the
electrometer / A-D combination when
measuring in the dose mode. Charge
gain values are field programmable via
Customization Software.
IG Current Gain (nC/Min) / Count
Overall electrical current gain of the
electrometer and A-D combination
when measuring in the dose rate mode.
Current gain values are field
programmable via Customization
Software.
