PRODUCTION DATA
Figure 8-3 and Figure 8-4 shows the LMH32404-Q1 test circuit used to measure its bandwidth, noise and transient response. The voltage source is DC biased close to the input bias voltage of the LMH32404-Q1. The LMH32404-Q1 internal design is optimized to only source current out of the input pin (INx). When testing the LMH32404-Q1 with a network analyzer or sinusoidal source, set the DC bias such that sum of the input AC and DC component does not result in a sourcing current into the amplifier input. Only use the LMH32404-Q1 with avalanche photodiodes (APDs) that sink current. An anode-biased APD satisfies this requirement.
Figure 8-5 shows the measured results for bandwidth of LMH32404-Q1 for all four channels.
Figure 8-6 shows the output noise spectral density of the LMH32404-Q1 with CAPD = 1 pF and no photodiode capacitance.
Figure 8-7 shows the turn-on time of the LMH32404-Q1 channel when the Mx pin is toggled from logic low to high. When the amplifier is off, the output is in a high-impedance state. When the amplifier turns on, the output settles and starts tracking the input within a few nanoseconds.
Figure 8-8 shows the turn-off time of the LMH32404-Q1 channel when the Mx pin is toggled from logic high to low. When the amplifier is off, the output is in a high-impedance state.
