A computation route that simulates the neutron-induced charge spectrum and pulse shape of a fission chamber is presented. It is based on the GARFIELD suite, and makes use of the MAGBOLTZ and SRIM codes. It allows the simulation of the signal in the current and Campbelling modes. Computations made with several fission chambers exemplify the possibilities of the route. A good qualitative agreement is obtained when comparing the results with the scarce experimental data available to date. After a further experimental qualification, this route will improve the design of fission chambers by assessing its overall sensitivity.
