Large-Area Balanced Photoreceivers
Frequency Response and Noise • 15
For the Model 2307 on the low setting the gain is
2x10
3
V/A and the bandwidth is 1 MHz. The gain on
the medium setting is 10
5
V/A, and the bandwidth is
200 kHz. The gain on the high setting is 2x10
6
V/A,
and the bandwidth is 150 kHz. The noise spectrum is
plotted in units of photocurrent noise, pA/
.
