CM1213
Integrated PD+TIA
DESCRIPTION
The Capella CM1213 PDIC is a low voltage
integrated photodiode and transimpedence
amplifier (TIA) for use as the photodetector in
CD optical pickups. The built-in TIA has low
output impedance for stability. The CM1213
can also be used in quadruple-speed drives
because the photodiode and TIA can operate
at typical speeds of 8MHz.
