A pulse height analyzer determining, by about the end of an input pulse, whether the pulse's magnitude falls within a preselected range. Two comparators, which establish the preselected range, couple to a coincidence means, such as a D-type flip-flop. The coincidence means provides one indication when the pulse falls within the selected range and another indication when the pulse exceeds the upper limit. Output means, typically one or more flip-flops, may then operate upon these indications to provide, as usual, one output pulse for each input pulse falling within the range. The circuit obviates the need for R-C delaying components and results in greater resolution between close pulses, quicker response times, and less sensitivity to the particular value of the components used. The timing for the output means may derive either from an external clock or from the effect of the input pulse itself upon the comparators.
