A line-integrated neutron emission profile is routinely measured using Stilbene neutron detector in JT-60U tokamak. Although the SND has many advantages as a neutron detector, the maximum count rate is limited up to 10$$^{5}$$ cps due to the analog pulse shape discrimination (PSD) circuit. To overcome this issue, a digital signal processing (DSP) system using a flash ADC has been developed In this system anode signals from photomultiplier of the SND are directory stored and digitized. Then, the PSD between neutrons and $$gamma$$ rays is performed using software. The DSP system has been installed in the vertical neutron collimator system inJT-60U and applied to deuterium experiments. It is confirmed that the PSD is sufficiently performed and collimated neutron flux is successfully measured with count rate up to 10$$^{6}$$ cps without the effect of pileup of detected pulses.
