Product Specification
Digiboard Transimpedance Amplifier Board Description
Most applications of photodiodes and especially those in the ultraviolet wavelength range require special amplifiers because of the small photocurrents. Although the uv-sensors of sglux provide large active areas you mostly may consider using an amplifier.
To support your application development we provide you this completely new photodiode amplifier board. Based on our successful Multifunctional 2-Channel Amplifier Board we included additional features: one analog channel with adjustable Schmitt-Trigger (ST) and a Current-to-Frequency converter (CFC) channel.
The CFC clearly simplifies the integration of our photodiodes into digital- and microprocessor based designs.
Digiboard Transimpedance Amplifier Board Features
• wide single supply voltage range 5.0 V … 18.0 V with surge and polarity protection
• low power consumption ( < 50 mW @ 5 V )
• analog transimpedance amplifier channel with:
adjustable gain in the range 10 5 … 10 7 V/A with fine tuning option
Schmitt-Trigger stage with adjustable switching point and adjustable Hysteresis
LED for easy adjustment of the Schmitt-Trigger
• Current-to-Frequency converter with:
2 measurement ranges giving high dynamic range
standard CMOS compatible digital output
Important Notice
Please consider any possible action to protect the sensitive devices on the board against electrostatic discharge (ESD). Not to do so voids warranty.
