  • Page 8: Description

    It is intended for use in systems where the detector, rather that the preamplifier, is the major noise The 142IH will accommodate up to ±3000 V for the source in the system or in systems where the detector. The output pulse polarity is the same as ultimate in performance is not required and the cost the applied bias polarity.

    The performance of impedance. Type RG-62/U cable is recommended; the 142IH Preamplifier, like that of all similar this has a 93 impedance and a capacitance of instruments, is degraded as the capacity at the 13.5 pF/ft (40.1 pF/m).
