How the GaGe Digitizer was used: The GaGe digitizer used in the research is the CompuScope 12400. This 12-bit data acquisition card was crucial in the analog-to-digital data conversion and data transfer to a computer during the testing of the ultrasound transducer. It operated at a sampling frequency of up to 400 MHz, ensuring precise and accurate digital representation of the analog signals received from the ultrasound transducer during experiments.
How the GaGe Digitizer was used: The GaGe Digitizer played a central role in this study by capturing detailed ultrasound data from 3D-printed PEKK specimens. The digitizer, operating at a 2 GHz sampling rate, collected backscattered ultrasound signals which were then analyzed using various signal processing techniques. This setup enabled precise differentiation between annealed and unannealed specimens based on their ultrasonic responses.

How the GaGe Digitizer was used: The GaGe digitizer, specifically the CS14200, is utilized to digitize beamformed radiofrequency (RF) data from the ultrasound front-end scanner. It samples data at a frequency of 200 MHz with 14-bit resolution, which is then transferred to a PC for further processing.
How the GaGe Digitizer was used: The GaGe Digitizer, with its high sampling rate of up to 40 M samples/s and 8-bit resolution, was used to capture high-frequency electromagnetic (EM) emissions induced by seismic waves passing through sulphide orebodies. This device provided clearer, more detailed signals compared to previous equipment, allowing for better analysis and understanding of the seismoelectric phenomenon.
How the GaGe Digitizer was used: Scintillation light yield (LY) was measured using a GaGe digitizer coupled with photomultiplier tubes, crucial for assessing crystal performance. Growth employed temperature reduction techniques, refining crystal quality.
How the GaGe Digitizer was used: The GaGe CompuScope 14100 digitizer card, a 14-bit,
50 million samples per second dual-channel waveform digitizer, was used to digitize the signals
obtained from ultrasonic methods. This equipment allowed for accurate measurement of the
acoustic properties (compressional and shear wave velocities) of the hydrate-bearing sediment
samples. The high data transfer rate (up to 80 Mb/s) of the CompuScope card ensured minimal
error in velocity estimations.
How the GaGe Digitizer was used: The GaGe digitizer played a critical role in sampling the output signals from the photodetectors in the lidar system. It enabled high-resolution data capture at a rate of 5MHz, ensuring that even minute details in the lidar returns were recorded accurately for subsequent analysis.

How the GaGe Digitizer was used: The GaGe Digitizer (CompuScope 12100) was utilized to digitize the signals received from the 10-MHz transducer. These signals, which were further amplified by an ultrasonic receiver, provided crucial data for analyzing the cavitation effects by measuring the inertial cavitation dose (ICD).
