Abstract
A resistivity tool includes receiver electronics near each receiver antenna loop. Placement of the electronics in this position such as at the circuit card between the terminal ends of the receiver antenna loop improves signal to noise ratio by reducing or eliminating interference, noise, and cross-talk of transmissions from the receiver to a remote microprocessor. By using material such as silicon-on-sapphire, electronics can be miniaturized and operate reliably at when exposed to high temperatures, even for long periods.
