ET Enterprises - Electron Tubes

Amplifiers

A1 amplifier module

For ease of use and flexibility in laboratory, prototyping, and bench top situations, ET Enterprises offers a stand-alone, inverting, FET input transimpedance amplifier. It is mounted in a small metal case with convenient BNC connectors for input and output.

A rotary switch enables the selection of four current-to- voltage conversion-gain ranges. The power requirements are +15 V and -15 V at 100 mA.

For high bandwidth amplification it is recommended that the cable length between the photomultiplier anode and amplifier input is kept to a minimum; this is to reduce noise.
