چکیده

We calculate the transfer function of an optical receiver composed by a photodiode and a FET input operational amplifier as a current to voltage converter. According to the theory of low-pass filters, the receiver bandwidth and quality factor are here analytically evaluated, proposing design solutions and their related sensitivity to eventual parameter fluctuations. We exemplify the combined action of photodetection and filtering comparing the analytical expression with full numerical SPICE simulations.

High Performance Audio Stages Using Transimpedance Amplifiers

Transimpedance or current feedback amplifiers are still relatively new to audio applications, since they are pri­ marily designed for video circuits. While the AD846 (an early high-per­ formance example) was successfully used in TAA,1 transimpedance amps may not be completely familiar de­ vices (The AD846 data sheet contains a detailed discussion of transimped­ ance amplifier theory). Interesti...

Wideband Low Distortion, High Gain Operational Amplifier

The OPA643 provides a level of speed and dynamic range previously unattainable in a monolithic op amp. Using a de-compensated voltage feedback architecture with two internal gain stages, the OPA643 achieves exceptionally low harmonic distortion over a wide frequency range. The "classic" differential input provides all the familiar benefits of precision op amps, such as bias current cancellation...

Integrated Wideband Low-Noise Current-Mode Transimpedance Preamplifiers for Optical Receivers

Classic designs of optical transimpedance amplifiers for p-i-n photodiode receiver circuits generally employ common-emitter or common-source input stages. In this paper, we explore the design of a new calss of highperformance "current-mode" optical transimpedance preamplifiers based on CMOS and BiCMOS common-gate and common-base input stages using a new-design approach hereafter called “total-t...

LH0024 and LH0032 High Speed Op Amp Applications

The LH0024 and LH0032 are very high speed general purpose operational amplifiers exhibiting 70 MHz bandwidths, 500 V/ms slew rates and 100 to 300 ns settling time to 0.1%. The LH0032 has the added advantage of FET input characteristics. Both, however, can drive loads with peak currents of 100 milliamperes (mA). The op amps are stable without external compensation when operating at closedloop ga...

S1: Hardware considerations

DStat relies on three op-amps: the control and buffer amplifiers in the potentiostat (U1 and U2 in Fig. 2(c) in the main text) and the transimpedance amplifier in the current measurement circuit (U3 in Fig. 3(b) in the main text). In DStat, these amplifiers are the LMP7702 (Texas Instruments, Dallas TX, USA) for control and buffer and LMP7721 (Texas Instruments) for transimpedance, respectively...
