FET input stage (800 pV/√Hz at 1 kHz). It has a frequency range of 0.5 Hz to 1 MHz and a fixed gain of 60 dB (×1000). The 5184 is ideal for use with medium impedance cryogenic sources and IR detectors such as HgCdTe, InSb and InAs.
Chapter 1, DESCRIPTION 1.2 Options The model 5184 is supplied complete with four 9 V alkaline batteries. The following optional extras are available. Model PS0108 Remote Line Power Supply for the model 5184. See Appendix B for details of this unit.
POWER TEST button. The associated indicator should light, indicating that the external supply is functioning properly. 2) Set the 5184 input GROUND / ISOLATE switch to the down (GROUND) position. 3) Connect the oscilloscope to the OUTPUT BNC connector.

6) Monitor the 5184 output; the output level should be 10 V pk-pk. 7) Set the 5184 input GROUND / ISOLATE switch to the up (ISOLATE) position.
100 kΩ. The 450 ohm output impedance provides a convenient 10:1 output attenuator if the amplifier is loaded with 50 ohms, which can be useful if the 5184 is required to drive coax cable greater than one meter in length at signal frequencies...
Chapter 3, OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 3.2 Battery Operation In battery powered operation, the 5184 requires four 9 V alkaline cells (type NEDA 1604, PP3 or equivalent). Each battery fits into its own removable tray accessible from the rear panel. When they are exhausted, all four batteries should be replaced together.
