ABSTRACT:
A transimpedance-type amplifier circuit includes a first resistor connected to a switching device and a second resistor connected with the first resistor in parallel with the switching device which is turned on in accordance with a result obtained by comparing an output from an inverting amplifier with a reference voltage. A diode is connected in parallel with the first resistor which is connected to the switching device, altering a feedback resistance constituted of these components. The diode maintains a terminal voltage across the first resistor to constant, and an optical current signal from a photodiode is therefore passed to discharge an electric charge accumulated in the parasitic capacitance of the photodiode.
