Abstract
This work presents the results obtained with a discrete component charge-sensitive amplifier and shaper combination designed to be the front end for a diamond spectrometer. A system with a rise time of 2.12ns, FWHM of 3.75ns and an ENC of 293e- RMS was developed and a high gain of 146mV/fC was achieved.
