TIA Use with Externally Biased Detectors
In some applications, MACOM TIAs are used with detectors biased at a voltage greater than available from TIA
PIN cathode supply. This works well if some basic cautions are observed. When turned off, the input to the TIA
exhibits the following I/V characteristic:
