Video Descriptions

In this presentation we will briefly discuss the model of a photodiode, review common photodiode amplifier architectures, as well as discuss the sources of noise and distortion in photodiode circuits and how to avoid them.

After this seminar you should know the basic operation of the photodiode amplifier and be able to successfully use them in your circuit designs.

Topics covered in this online seminar include:

  • The equivalent model of a photodiode Photovoltaic and photoconductive amplifier architectures
  • Biasing schemes
  • Stability considerations
  • Noise issues
  • Some potential parts you can use
  • Design resources
