142AH Preamplifier

• Optimum performance for charged-particle or heavy-ion detectors requiring high bias voltage with capacitances of up to 100 pF
• Extremely low noise
• Accepts 0 to ±5 kV bias
• Separate fast-timing output signal with rise time from <5 ns

The ORTEC Model 142AH Preamplifier was designed to meet the needs of experimenters who require optimum performance from their charged-particle or heavy-ion detectors. This requirement is satisfied by the charge-sensitive Model 142AH through its extremely low noise and fast-timing characteristics. It is particularly suitable for high-energy charged-particle spectroscopy where high-resolution detectors with capacitances of up to 100 pF and bias voltages of up to 5000 V are involved.
