THAT'S NOISE...
THAT'S ENHANCETRON!
New major instrument extracts signals from noise! What's Enhancetron? What does it do? Enhancetron 1024 extracts the signal of interest from non-filterable noise. It's a portable signal-averaging digital computer that enhances signal-to-noise ratios. It's a new electronic measurement tool that finds immediate applicat i o n in a s t r o n o m y , b i o - m e d i c i n e , physics, electrophysiology, NMR, EPR, mass spectometry, and other fields. The illustration shows how Enhancetron works. Signals obscured by noise are digitized at 1024 time intervals, and the results are recorded as 1024 numbers in a magnetic core memory.Subsequent sweeps are added numerically. The repetitive signal of interest adds in direct proportion to the number of sam-
pies taken; noise adds in proportion to the square root of the number of samples taken. The signal of interest literally "grows" out of the noise, as you can see, and is displayed on an external oscilloscope. The list of electronic features is impressive. Ask your Nuclear Data salesman for a demonstration of ND-800— Enhancetron 1024— or write for details and specifications on this remarkable new solution to your noise problems. (As you'd expect, it's from Nuclear Datai
