EDIT: Please ignore the following data. The revised data and plot are in Elog 10089
Yesterday evening, I conducted the same measurements done in Elog-10059 using the same REF PD (NF 1611) and the same model of BBPD, but on different piece that needed to be checked.
I moved the NA from near rack 1Y1 to the Jenne laser table and back again after the readings were done.
Acquiring data
- The following conditions were set on Network Analyzer Agilent 4395:
1) Frequency sweep range: 1MHz to 300 MHz.
2) Number of Points sampled in the range: 201
3) Type of sweep: Logarithmic
- Set the NA to give the corresponding transfer function value (output of BBPD over output of 1611) and also Phase response in degrees.
- Save the data into floppy disk for processing on the computer.
Results
The Plots of transimpedence obtained are attached. The data and matlab code used is in the zip file.
The transimpedance of Broadband photodiode (D1002969-v8) was around 50kV/A-70kV/A (Unusually high) for most of the range (2), but the value started falling as the frequency approached 200 MHz.
The high impedance might be because the PD is faulty.
