Drawing preview
Lo scenario

You need a stable high-voltage bias for an avalanche photodiode in a light detection system. The circuit must limit current, filter noise, and provide a sense point for photocurrent monitoring.

Cosa contiene questo disegno

Leggi le decisioni che ne stanno alla base.

01

Use a 200V source with a 100k current-limiting resistor to protect the APD from overcurrent

02

Add a 1k sense resistor from anode to ground to convert photocurrent to a measurable voltage

03

Place a 10n capacitor across the APD to shunt high-frequency noise

Reusable for any reverse-biased APD application, including LIDAR receivers, photon counting, and optical communication front-ends.
