The photodiode voltage is described by an inverse formulation of the diode equation, where j0 is the reverse saturation (dark) current, nd is the ideality factor, kB is the Boltzmann constant and ...

Equation (1) above shows that the output noise voltage is dependent on the equivalent input noise voltage, Vnoise_input. 2) Minimize noise current from the (-) input because the noise current at the ...

Photodiode is a type of light detector capable of converting light energy into either current or voltage, depending upon the mode of operation. Photodiodes are similar to typical semiconductor diodes ...
