Revision as of 14:58, 30 June 2010

A study was performed using three preAmps:

  • Yves' old preAmp : the old preamp that changed behavior a month ago
  • Beni's old preAmp: the old preamp used before by Beni.
  • Naomi's preAmp  : the new preAmp.

Left is always Yves' old preAmp, middle is Beni's old preAmp, right is Naomi's new preAmp

First 2000V was put on the chamber and a random cosmic ray signal was selected:

Yves' old preamp - 2000V - cosmic ray
Beni's old preamp - 2000V - cosmic ray
Naomi's new preamp - 2000V - cosmic ray


OK, so far so good. Let's switch the HV off and look at the ringing: the highest amplitude ringing was selected, so you are looking at the high end of the pedestal:

Channel 1

Yves' old preamp - ch1 - ringing
Beni's old preamp - ch1 - ringing
Naomi's new preamp - ch1 - ringing
