Figure 2-7 shows the TINA-TI™ simulation schematic for the OPA858 amplifier design. The current source represents the photodiode and the 1.1-pF capacitor is the equivalent capacitance from the NR-7500 photodiode. The noninverting input of the amplifier is biased positive because the input of the photodiode only pulses one direction.
Figure 2-8 shows the bandwidth simulation results of the OPA858 transimpedance circuit. The simulated bandwidth is higher than the predicted value in Section 2.4.1.1. This difference in value is because the model more accurately models the open-loop response of the amplifier and the calculated value is only based on a first-order approximation of the circuit.
