When possible it is best to provide input voltages that are near the low end of the range in the specifications table. This will minimize the amount of heat on the PRP110 due to the power dissipation in the voltage regulators.
The PRP110 has two inverting preamplifiers for the MAPMT last dynode signal — one in group A and one in group B. Since the last dynode current is typically in the positive direction, these inverting preamplifiers produce negative- going output signals to match the direction of the anger logic signals.
Gain Switches The PRP110 utilizes ten miniature two-position switches to adjust the gain of the four anger preamplifiers and last dynode preamplifier. The preamplifier gain can be set to either a low or high setting by using the included adjustment tool to rotate the switches’...
