8.4 Phase Response
8.5 Effect of Temperature
As the temperature increases, the bias current in the the input amplifier increases.
This causes the inherent noise to increase and the input impedance to decrease
resulting in the effect shown in Fig.8.9.
Note:
The preamplifier can withstand temperatures up to 150°C. However, we do
not recommend that it is exposed to this temperature over a longer period of time
as the product’s life expectancy is drastically reduced. In addition, we recommend
that you don’t use high supply voltages with long cables at this temperature for the
same reason.

pacitance (measured with the 3m cable normally sup-
plied with the preamplifier)
