Hi. I'm Anthony Vaughan with the Texas Instruments High Speed Amplifier Marketing Team. Today, we're in Las Vegas at the Consumer Electronics Show. Some of the most cutting-edge products at this year's show feature autonomous capability enabled by Lidar. Some systems that feature Lidar include range finders, speed measurement devices, robotics, drones, and automotive advanced driver assistance systems.

At TI, we have a great reference design, our TI design, available to help people who are developing next-generation optical front ends for Lidar. This reference design features TI's new OPA858 device configured as a transimpedance amplifier. The OPA858 is a decompensated 5.5 gigahertz operational amplifier with low bias current CMOS inputs.

The device also has low input voltage noise of only 2.5 nanovolts per root Hertz and a very fast slew rate of 2,000 volts per microsecond. It's also available in an extremely small 2 by 2 millimeter, 8-pin package. For more information about this reference design, including schematics and a bill of materials, check out the link below. I hope this helps in your next-generation Lidar design.
