New optoelectronic devices for the Near and Mid-Infrared spectral range open completely new possibilities for portable sensors creation. Using infrared LED-PD optopairs allows developing an instrument that is smaller, less expensive and energy-saving.

PAb Photodiode Preamplifier Board

Datasheet 

APPLICATION

PAb preamplifier is oriented for amplification and conversion of the pulse current signal generated by LMSNT photodiodes (PDs). Preamplifier enables PD operation at photovoltaic mode (with no reverse bias) – mode in which photodiode becomes the source of photocurrent. PD photocurrent is amplified and converted by preamplifier into voltage signal. The resulted voltage signal has the same form as the photocurrent, i.e. if the photocurrent from photodiode is a meander, the converted signal will be a meander too with the same frequency and pulse duration. Current into voltage conversion coefficient is constant and depends on given photodiode.
