The C5594 series is designed for photomultiplier tubes
(PMTs), especially fast time response PMTs.
This unit has high gain of 36 dB and wide frequency
bandwidth of 50 kHz to 1.5 GHz, which can accurately
amplify the PMT pulse output. Therefore it is well-mat-
ched to the application of Time Correlated Single Photon
Counting (TCSPC) for fluorescence life time measure-
ment with MCP-PMT and various time response meas-
urements with PMT.
