Buying Photodiode Amplifiers

Top-level product category: icon detectors and measurements

Related product category: photodiodes

The performance of photodiode-based detectors depends on both the photodiode and the associated electronics. Optimized transimpedance amplifiers enhance sensitivity and bandwidth, crucial for high-performance photodetection.

Making Good Purchase Decisions

As the most professional photonics purchasing portal, RP Photonics helps you to not only to find all relevant suppliers (not limited to our advertisers), but also to make good purchasing decisions.

NEW: Structured Decision Process

Purchasing involves a lot of responsibility. We recommend that you apply best practice by using the following structured process: Go through the following expandable sections, complete the form and finally come to a purchase decision. You can then print that to a PDF for documenting the process.

Our article on best practices for purchasing and another one explaining this tool give you valuable insights.

1. Understand the technical background

It is important to sufficiently understand the technology before buying.

Use the comprehensive resources of RP Photonics. Unfortunately, we do not have a specific article related to photodiode amplifiers.

If you need personal help, contact RP Photonics to get technical consultancy.

2. Define your requirements

It is essential to fully understand and clearly define your requirements before you buy.

We recommend that you develop a list of clear specifications according to your specific needs, against which you can later check the suitability of found product offers:

To help you, we have already listed some aspects we recommend you consider when buying photodiode amplifiers. Of course, there may be other aspects that are relevant to your specific case.

This list is for your own preparation, and can later (possibly in modified form) be used for quotation requests to suppliers.

Otherwise, you will need to talk to your technical colleagues.

If you cannot sufficiently clarify your requirements, you may want to get technical consultancy from RP Photonics.

You find these buttons in the supplier list below or under "3. Find suitable suppliers".

3. Find suitable suppliers

We suggest three steps:

  • Below, you can find our list of suppliers for photodiode amplifiers. Use the checkboxes to mark possibly suitable suppliers.
  • The selected suppliers will appear below this list, along with your list of specifications. You can then indicate which specifications they meet according to your research. (You should finalize your specifications before doing this.)
  • Based on the results, you can finally choose a supplier that is hopefully a good enough fit.

photodiode amplifiers

AMI designs and manufactures a range of transimpedance amplifiers for OEM, medical and research applications. AMI’s amplifiers combine low noise, high gain, large dynamic range, and small package size. The 311 Series are state-of-the-art precision amplifiers designed for current source input applications in which high gain and low noise are required. The 341 Series is the same amplifier with DC coupling. The Model 313A is a bipolar amplifier designed for current source input applications in which high gain and low noise are required. The design is optimized for high-speed response and has a lower input impedance than the 312B series, permitting operation with higher capacitive sources.
