Preamplifier
The preamplifiers of VIGO System S.A. are divided into six types:
Series MIP :
- Transimpedance preamplifier modules
- with axial fan for flexible laboratory operation for TE-cooled detectors
- Bandwidth up to 250 MHz
Series SIP :
- Miniaturised transimpedance preamplifier modules
- Requires an external heat sink
- For uncooled and cooled detectors
- Bandwidth up to 250 MHz
Series PIP :
- Programmable "SMART" preamplifier for uncooled and cooled detectors
- with axial fan for flexible laboratory operation
- Bandwidth up to 200 MHz
- Transimpedance preamplifier with and without housing
- For uncooled detectors
- Bandwidth up to 20 MHz
Series AIP :
- Preamplifier with DC output and integrated cooler control
- Suitable for bandwidths up to 250 MHz
- For 2- and 3TE cooled detectors
Series FIP :
- High Speed Transimpedance Preamplifier
- For cooled detectors (2- to 4-TE)
- Bandwidth > 1 GHz
In addition to the selection of the preamplifier type, the configuration AC or DC coupling and the bandwidth must also be specified for an order.
- DC coupling : the bandwidth of the detector starts at 0 Hz, so that cw radiation can also be measured.
- AC – coupling : the bandwidth of the detector starts at 10 Hz, 1 kHz or 10 kHz, depending on the bandwidth.
Bandwidth : Different bandwidths are offered. Please note that not every detector – preamplifier combination, i.e. every detector – bandwidth combination is possible.
Controls for TE cooling
The PTCC-01 cooler control is available in 3 versions
- PTCC-01-OEM : Cooler control with detector supply, without housing with status LED display and status of data connector
- PTCC-01-BAS : Cooler control with detector supply in housing with status LED display
- PTCC-01-ADV : Cooler control with detector power supply in housing, with push-button control panel and LCD display.
The PTCC cooler control is compatible with the preamplifier types: MIP, SIP, PIP, FIP and QIP.
To control the programmable modules PIP preamplifier + PTCC cooler control, please install the Smart programme on your PC.

Low-noise power supply PPS-03
Low-noise power supply PPS-03 front view
The low-noise power supply PPS-03 is designed for the operation of uncooled detectors integrated in the preamplifiers VIP, SIP or µIP. The module can also be used to supply the AIP preamplifier with integrated cooler control. This allows the VIGO detector modules to be operated via 230 V AC.
