f*****0 发帖数: 489 | 3 first of all, why does it have to be a transimpedance amp?
2ndly, what is the problem you want to solve? |
i*******a 发帖数: 13 | 4 I am going to test the quantum efficiency of solar cells using chopped
monochromatic light (a small AC current in the mA range) and bias light (a
large DC current >1 Ampere). Such a large DC current will saturate most TIA.
Any current-to-voltage converter can be used? |

light (a

I am still unsure as to why you need a transimpedance amplifier.
I believe we call that a "resistor".

y*******w 发帖数: 5917 | 6 so basically you want to measure mA AC current amid ~A DC current. The
device you need is a high pass filter. Depends on your chopper frequency, a
simple RC circuit may be enough. mA is huge current, any TIA will do. I
often need to detect ~100pA current at 1MHz, so jealous you have such an
easy project.
Curious, are you EE major? This sounds like a EE 101 problem.
TIA.

i*******a 发帖数: 13 | 8 typo: it is micro-A instead of mA. It seems to be an big issue in PV

ma=10-3 amp;
ua=10-6 amp;
pa=...
but that doesn't matter for this discussion. your original question is
poorly framed. sounds like you want to amplify a weak a/c current signal
burried in a strong DC signal into a voltage output.
to convert a current signal into a voltage output doesn't require a
transimpedance amplifier.
then, you have the issue of separating the a/c signal from the dc
signal. there are many ways to solve that: a capacitor; a transformer; a
dc servo; or even digitizing the inp

y*******w 发帖数: 5917 | 10 我觉得LZ可能碰到的问题是DC光太强,所以DC光强引起的shot noise可能掩盖了比DC弱
百万倍以上的AC信号,尤其是宽频下。还有就是1/f noise
假设DC是1A,那么其shot noise是6e-10*sqrt(Hz)A,如果带宽1MHz,那么光shot noise
就有0.6uA。所以LZ可以采取以下措施:
1。增加AC量,如果AC只是用作small signal来测量某bias下的效率,那么一般来说
small signal没有必要比bias signal低百万倍。如果只是低千倍,问题显然很容易解
决。
2。加快Chopper,尽量使载频远离DC,然后设计一个比较高级数的高通滤波器,尽量把
DC给除掉。比如一个三级高通,3dB 1kHz,很容易把60Hz(灯泡)以下的信号衰减一百
万倍以上。显然,chopper越快,滤波越容易。
3。高通之后,再在TIA后面使用Lock-in amplifier,一般来说chopper总是和lock-in
amplifier一起使用的,如果你只是测量一个数值,你可以integrate非常长的时间,这
样,甚至pA都可以探测到,不用说区

looks like I really f%#&*d you up for good, :). |
n***r 发帖数: 25 | 12 youfellow made very good points here. improve chopper frequency to move
signal away from flicker noise and use lockin amplifier to detect signal.
I guess LZ's major problem is: even TIA is saturated, the signal is still
too weak.
If Idc=1A, Iac=1uA, with R=10ohm Vdc=10V, Vac=10uV.
Vac is easily burried in the noise floor. You may use Lock-in Amplifier to
get some signal out, you wont get great SNR.
So the solution is to seperate Idc from Iac before converting into Voltage.
Of course you can't f
