الوصف: We present a new approach to Nuclear Quadrupole Resonance (NQR)/Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, the Damp-Enhanced Superregenerative Nuclear Spin Analyser (DESSA). This system integrates Superregenerative principles with pulsed sample excitation and detection, offering significant advancements over traditional Super-Regenerative Receivers (SRRs). Our approach overcomes certain limitations associated with traditional Super-Regenerative Receivers (SRRs) by integrating direct digital processing of the oscillator response delay time (T$_d$) and an electronic damp unit to regulate the excitation pulse decay time (T$_e$). The essence is combining pulsed excitation with a reception inspired by, but distinct from, conventional SRRs. The damp unit allows a rapid termination of the oscillation pulse and the initiation of detection within microseconds, and direct digital processing avoids the need for a second lower frequency which is used for quenching in a traditional SRRs, thereby avoiding the formation of sidebands. We demonstrate the effectiveness of DESSA on a \ch{NaClO3} sample containing the isotope Chlorine-35 where it accurately detects the NQR signal with sub-kHz resolution.
