ADDITIONAL PRODUCT INFORMATION

The Cx-L Spectroscopic Amplifier produces a Gaussian output signal shape with 180 ns FWHM. Its low baseline noise of 300 electrons enables high-resolution particle spectroscopy, particularly at particle rates up to 1 MHz.
The width of the Gaussian output signal can be customized for the readout with a conventional MCA.

The Cx-L Spectroscopic Amplifier is optimized for particle spectroscopy with high capacitive input load. The rms noise contribution for particle spectroscopy as a function of the capacitive input load is shown on the left.
With an input capacitance of 1 nF, the noise contribution is only 900 electrons. This demonstrates that the Cx-L Spectroscopic Amplifier can be operated with 10 m long 50 Ω cables at the input.
