LTC6563
Four-Channel
Transimpedance Amplifier
with Output Multiplexing
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The LTC®6563 is a low-noise four-channel transimpedance
amplifier (TIA) with 600MHz bandwidth. The LTC6563
TIA’s low noise, wide linear range, and low power dissipa-
tion are ideal for LIDAR receivers using Avalanche photo-
diodes (APDs) and photodiodes (PDs). The amplifier fea-
tures selectable 22.2/16.7/11.1/5.55kΩ Transimpedance
gain (RT) and 90µA linear input current range. Using an
APD with a total input capacitance of 0.5pF, the input cur-
rent noise density is 1.8pA/√Hz at 100MHz and 3.7pA/√Hz
at 600MHz. The LTC6563 consumes between 194mW and
325mW on a 3.3V supply depending on output mode.
An internal 4-to-1 MUX simplifies the system design. In
addition, external multiplexing capability allows channel
expansion up to 64 channels, saving space and power.
Fast overload recovery and fast channel switchover make
the LTC6563 well suited for LIDAR receivers with multiple
APDs. The built-in high-speed differential ADC driver can
