Improving Photodiode Circuit Performance: Understanding Slow Rise Time Issues
Yes, that's 1M ohm. The reason why it's made large is because I wanted the output voltage BEFORE the voltage divider to be 5V (saturating the opamp) and then step it down to 3.3V AFTER the voltage divider. In fact, based on my calculation, the current generated by the photodiode is ~5uA. So to...- skyspace

Improving Photodiode Circuit Performance: Understanding Slow Rise Time Issues
Hi, I have a photodiode circuit (attached), where a photodiode is hooked up to a current to voltage opamp connected to a voltage divider. This circuit works as intended: when there is light, Vo ~ 3.3V, and when there is no light, Vo ~ 0.3V. However, when I measured the rise time of this...- skyspace
