Figure 13-20: PMT Preamp Block Diagram
The PMT temperature control loop maintains the PMT temperature around 7° C and can
be viewed as test function PMT TEMP on the front panel (refer to Section 4.1.1).
The electrica
l test (ETEST) circuit generates a constant, electronic signal intended to
simulate the output of the PMT (after conversion from current to voltage). By bypassing
the detector’s actual signal, it is possible to test most of the signal handling and
