SINGLE SUPPLY, LOW POWER PHOTODIODE
AMPLIFIER
The circuit shown in
from a photo-diode into a voltage output. In this circuit, the
emphasis is on achieving high bandwidth and the tran-
simpedance gain setting is kept relatively low. Because of its
high slew rate limit and high speed, the LMH664X family lends
itself well to such an application.
This circuit achieves approximately 1V/mA of tran-
simpedance gain and capable of handling up to 1mA
the photodiode. Q1, in a common base configuration, isolates
the high capacitance of the photodiode (C
input in order to maximize speed. Input is AC coupled through
C1 to ease biasing and allow single supply operation. With 5V
single supply, the device input/output is shifted to near half
supply using a voltage divider from V

imized. D1, tied to Q1 base, is for temperature compensation
of Q1’s bias point. Q1 collector current was set to be large
enough to handle the peak-to-peak photodiode excitation and
not too large to shift the U1 output too far from mid-supply.
