ABSTRACT:
A high-speed, high-resolution optical scanner system includes a flying spot scanner for scanning a beam across an object bearing information to be read and a high-bandwidth, high-sensitivity optical receiver including an avalanche photodiode for sensing the variation in light intensity of the beam reflected from the object being scanned; a power source for biasing the avalanche diode proximate its reverse breakdown voltage to produce high current gain in response to incident light; and a charge collector circuit responsive to the avalanche photodiode for producing a voltage proportional to the light incident on the avalanche photodiode.
