Low noise amplifier design and low noise amplifiers for characterizing the low frequency noise of infrared detectors

Abstract

The theory of input equivalent noise is detailed and applied to the design of low noise amplifiers suitable for high impedance (>100 M/spl Omega/) photovoltaic IR detectors and relatively low impedance (<1 k/spl Omega/) photoconductive IR detectors.
