The purpose of the preamplifier is to receive signals from the scintillating fibers on the SiPMs and amplify the signal. These boards have two stages, the amplifying and summing circuits. In the first amplifying circuit the 15 SiPMs are individually amplified and can be independently readout. The summing circuit takes groups of 5 individual SiPM channels and sums the signals together into a summed output. This summing circuit also has the capability to change the gain of the amplified signal which allows for the study of cosmic rays and to see the dark rate of the SiPM.
