Description:
The Model 181 Current Sensitive Preamplifer is a high-sensitivity low-noise device ideally suited to processing the exstremely small current signals provided by photodetectors and similar sources. The preamplifier features a virtual-ground input and sensitivity selectable by means of a front-panel switch from 10-4 A/V to 10-9 A/V. A built-in output attenuator allows the output signal to be reduced by a factor of ten. A front-panel OVERLOAD lamp provides warning when output voltage excurisions exceed normal operating levels. There is even provision for biasing an external detector by applying an internally derviced DC voltage to the INPUT connector.

The model 181 takes avantage of the accessory power outputs provided on SIGNAL RECOVERY lock-in amplifiers by taking its power from the lock-in amplifier via a rear-panel connector, but it can also be used with a separate line power source, available as an optional extra, or with any suitable regulated power source.

With its small size, high performance, and ease of operation, the instrument should prove of significant value in any application involving low-noise processing of small current signals.
