	The Phillips 7106 Discriminator is our discriminator of choice
	for no reason other than it's what we have. What a discriminator does is filter out signals
	that are below a certain threshold that you set. Input voltages can be anything but the output
	is either in ECL (a type of logic standard, unlike NIM logic) or a SUM output.</p>

	<p>INPUT threshold = -10 to -1033 mV<br/>
	SUM width = 4.5 - 110 ns<br/>
	SUM height = 50 mV x number of INPUT channels over threshold<br/>
	Input to Output Delay: &lt;11 ns</p>
