Abstract: Researchers attempt to describe a charge-sensitive preamplifier for fast pulse
processing. The charge sensitive preamplifier uses a capacitor in place of the
feedback resistor. The input capacitance of this circuit is Cin =
ACf, where A is the open-loop gain of the op-amp. If the op-amp gain
is high enough that Ci<<Cin, the external capacitance
can be neglected. The charge Q is stored onto the feedback capacitor Cf,
producing an output pulse of height V = -Q/Cf independent of the
detector and stray capacitances. Since, there is a high voltage on the detector
electrode, the amplifier input is connected to the cathode of the GM detector
through a ground full-up resistor.
