Page 7: Description
Description Chapter 1.1 Description The Model 5402 is a low noise current input preamplifier designed for use whenever the signal source is a current source - for example, an electron multiplier, ion collector, photo multiplier, or photodiode. The gain (transimpedance) is switch selectable with six settings enabling the amplifier, on its most sensitive range, to detect fractions of a picoamp without noise degradation. - Page 8 Chapter 1, DESCRIPTION Mounting Shelf. This allows up to 32 Model 5402’s to be Model 7210/50 conveniently positioned together, on four shelves each containing eight preamplifiers. See Appendix D for details of this shelf.
