® OPT201 FPO 70% INTEGRATED PHOTODIODE AND AMPLIFIER FEATURES DESCRIPTION ● PHOTODIODE SIZE: 0.090 x 0.090 inch (2.29 x 2.29mm) ● 1MΩ FEEDBACK RESISTOR ● HIGH RESPONSIVITY: 0.45A/W (650nm) ● LOW DARK ERRORS: 2mV ● BANDWIDTH: 4kHz ● WIDE SUPPLY RANGE: ±2.25 to ±18V The OPT201 is an opto-electronic integrated circuit containing a photodiode and transimpedance amplifier on a single dielectrically isolated chip. The transimpedance amplifier consists of a precision FETinput op amp and an on-chip metal film resistor. The 0.09 x 0.09 inch photodiode is operated at zero bias for excellent linearity and low dark current. The integrated combination of photodiode and transimpedance amplifier on a single chip eliminates the problems commonly encountered in discrete designs such as leakage current errors, noise pick-up and gain peaking due to stray capacitance. ● LOW QUIESCENT CURRENT: 400µA ● TRANSPARENT 8-PIN DIP APPLICATIONS ● ● ● ● ● The OPT201 operates over a wide supply range (±2.25 to ±18V) and supply current is only 400µA. It is packaged in a transparent plastic 8-pin DIP, specified for the 0°C to 70°C temperature range.

If a narrowly focused light source were to miss the photodiode area and fall only on the op amp circuitry, the OPT201 would not perform properly. The large (0.090 x 0.090 inch) photodiode area allows easy positioning of narrowly focused light sources. The photodiode area is easily visible—it appears very dark compared to the surrounding active circuitry. Figure 1 shows the basic connections required to operate the OPT201. Applications with high-impedance power supplies may require decoupling capacitors located close to the device pins as shown. Output is zero volts with no light and increases with increasing illumination. The incident angle of the light source also affects the apparent sensitivity in uniform irradiance. For small incident angles, the loss in sensitivity is simply due to the smaller effective light gathering area of the photodiode (proportional to the cosine of the angle). At a greater incident angle, light is diffracted and scattered by the side of the package. These effects are shown in the typical performance curve “Response vs Incident Angle.” 2 1MΩ (0V) RF 40pF ID is proportional to light intensity (radiant power). λ 4 ID 75Ω ID 5 VO VO = ID R F OPT201 8 1 DARK ERRORS The dark errors in the specification table include all sources. The dominant error source is the input offset voltage of the op amp. Photodiode dark current and input bias current of the op amp are in the 2pA range and contribute virtually no offset error at room temperature. Dark current and input bias current double for each 10°C above 25°C. At 70°C, the error current can be approximately 100pA. This would produce a 1mV offset with RF = 10MΩ. The OPT201 is useful with feedback resistors of 100MΩ or greater at room temperature. The dark output voltage can be trimmed to zero with the optional circuit shown in Figure 3. 3 0.1µF 0.1µF +15V –15V FIGURE 1. Basic Circuit Connections. Photodiode current, ID, is proportional to the radiant power or flux (in watts) falling on the photodiode. At a wavelength of 650nm (visible red) the photodiode Responsivity, RI, is approximately 0.45A/W. Responsivity at other wavelengths is shown in the typical performance curve “Responsivity vs Wavelength.” CEXT The typical performance curve “Output Voltage vs Radiant Power” shows the response throughout a wide range of radiant power. The response curve “Output Voltage vs Irradiance” is based on the photodiode area of 5.23 x 10–6m2. RF 2 1MΩ The OPT201’s voltage output is the product of the photodiode current times the feedback resistor, (IDRF). The internal feedback resistor is laser trimmed to 1MΩ ±2%. Using this resistor, the output voltage responsivity, RV, is approximately 0.45V/µW at 650nm wavelength. 4 40pF 75Ω λ An external resistor can be substituted, added in series, or in parallel with the internal resistor to set a different voltage responsivity. For values of RF less than 1MΩ, an external capacitor, CEXT, should be connected in parallel with RF (see Figure 2). This capacitor eliminates gain peaking and prevents instability. The value of CEXT can be read from the table in Figure 2. 5 VO = ID RF OPT201 8 LIGHT SOURCE POSITIONING The OPT201 is 100% tested with a light source that uniformly illuminates the full area of the integrated circuit, including the op amp. Although all IC amplifiers are light-sensitive to some degree, the OPT201 op amp circuitry is designed to minimize this effect. Sensitive junctions are shielded with metal, and differential stages are cross-coupled. Furthermore, the photodiode area is very large relative to the op amp input circuitry making these effects negligible. 1 3 V+ V– EXTERNAL RF CEXT 100MΩ 10MΩ 1MΩ 330kΩ 100kΩ 33kΩ 10kΩ (1) (1) (1) 30pF 130pF 180pF 350pF NOTE: (1) No CEXT required. FIGURE 2. Using External Feedback Resistor. ® 7 OPT201 approximately 0.02% up to 100µA photodiode current. The photodiode can produce output currents of 1mA or greater with high radiant power, but nonlinearity increases to several percent in this region. When used with very large feedback resistors, tiny leakage currents on the circuit board can degrade the performance of the OPT201. Careful circuit board design and clean assembly procedures will help achieve best performance. A “guard ring” on the circuit board can help minimize leakage to the critical non-inverting input (pin 2). This guard ring should encircle pin 2 and connect to Common, pin 8. This very linear performance at high radiant power assumes that the full photodiode area is uniformly illuminated. If the light source is focused to a small area of the photodiode, nonlinearity will occur at lower radiant power. DYNAMIC RESPONSE Using the internal 1MΩ resistor, the dynamic response of the photodiode/op amp combination can be modeled as a simple R/C circuit with a –3dB cutoff frequency of 4kHz. This yields a rise time of approximately 90µs (10% to 90%). Dynamic response is not limited by op amp slew rate. This is demonstrated by the dynamic response oscilloscope photographs showing virtually identical large-signal and small-signal response. NOISE PERFORMANCE Noise performance of the OPT201 is determined by the op amp characteristics in conjunction with the feedback components and photodiode capacitance. The typical performance curve “Output Noise Voltage vs Measurement Bandwidth” shows how the noise varies with RF and measured bandwidth (1Hz to the indicated frequency). The signal bandwidth of the OPT201 is indicated on the curves. Noise can be reduced by filtering the output with a cutoff frequency equal to the signal bandwidth. Dynamic response will vary with feedback resistor value as shown in the typical performance curve “Voltage Output Responsivity vs Frequency.” Rise time (10% to 90%) will vary according to the –3dB bandwidth produced by a given feedback resistor value— t R ≈ 0. 35 (1) f Output noise increases in proportion to the square-root of the feedback resistance, while responsivity increases linearly with feedback resistance. So best signal-to-noise ratio is achieved with large feedback resistance. This comes with the trade-off of decreased bandwidth. C The noise performance of a photodetector is sometimes characterized by Noise Effective Power (NEP). This is the radiant power which would produce an output signal equal to the noise level. NEP has the units of radiant power (watts). The typical performance curve “Noise Effective Power vs Measurement Bandwidth” shows how NEP varies with RF and measurement bandwidth. where: tR is the rise time (10% to 90%) fC is the –3dB bandwidth LINEARITY PERFORMANCE Current output of the photodiode is very linear with radiant power throughout a wide range.
