VPT to VFE signal readout: on 60cm of coax cable (CERN stores 04.61.11.A, 101pF/m)
HV supplied from Service Cavern, along 110m of coax cable (
CERN stores 04.61.11.C, 101pF/m) to each Supercrystal
EE VFE card NOT the same as the EB VFE card - see EE MGPA/VFE schematic for details.
        Differences: EE does not have the
100nF de-coupling capacitor on the VFE - this is done on the EE HV filter card instead
                           EE has a pair of back-to-back (VPT spark) protection diodes at the input to the MGPA
                           EE dynamic range is different - see notes under 2005, below
