Which Low noise Amplifier should I select for IR Photodiode ? What parameters are to be considered?

[semmas]

Actually I'm assigned to design a low noise preamp & apmlifier for IR Photodiode (PD34Sr) . So any help regarding this would be highly appreciated.

Hi Semmas,

I don't have an overview over all amplifiers there are but I found these 2 helful links describing this topic.

I would also suggest you to cantact a manufactorer (e.g. linear technologies), describing your application and asking for a suggestion. If you have an paticular amlifier in mind it is much easier to find similar devices from other manufactorer.

I hope this could help you a little.

Kind regards,

Heinz
