1.8 GHz Unity-Gain Bandwidth, 3.3 nV/√Hz, FET Input Amplifier

The OPA859 is a wideband,

low-noise operational amplifier with CMOS inputs for wideband transimpedance and voltage

amplifier applications. When the device is configured as a transimpedance amplifier (TIA),

the 0.9GHz gain bandwidth product (GBWP) enables high closed-loop bandwidths in

low-capacitance photodiode applications.

The following graph shows the bandwidth and noise

performance of the OPA859 as a function of

the photodiode capacitance when the amplifier is configured

as a TIA. The total noise is calculated along a bandwidth

range extending from dc to the calculated frequency

(f) on the left scale. The OPA859 package has a feedback pin

(FB) that simplifies the feedback network connection between

the input and the output.

The OPA859 is optimized to

operate in optical time-of-flight (ToF) systems where the OPA859 is used

with time-to-digital converters, such as the TDC7201. Use the OPA859 to drive a high-speed analog-to-digital converter (ADC) in

high-resolution LIDAR systems with a differential output amplifier, such as the THS4541 or

LMH5401 devices.
