INTRODUCTION

When configuring a component system, no single signal processing module is more important to choose correctly than the amplifier. Ultimately, it is the amplifier whose gain range, shaping time constants, low-noise design and other characteristics, must be well chosen for the particular type of detector being used, and the application being addressed.

This section lists numerous specialty and spectroscopy-grade amplifiers which may be used to satisfy a wide variety of applications. Many of their characteristics are discussed below.
