At the single ended output, the resting voltage is approximately 1.0V. Loaded with 100Ω or higher load, the output can swing to 3V. This is equivalent to a 2VP-P swing. However, in case there is low frequency noise at the input current, the resting voltage is no longer a constant of approximately 1.0V. In order to mitigate this problem, a negative feedback circuit is used. The loop bandwidth must be low such that it doesn’t affect the useful narrow signal pulses received from the APD. | At the single ended output, the resting voltage is approximately 1.0V.
