Abstract

An economical technique has been developed to characterize photodiode linearity. The technique is based on measuring photodiode´s series resistance and is designed for industry applications. The measurement set-up has been made very simple by using only a source-measure unit and plotting software. Presented results clearly show advantages and validity of the proposed technique for characterizing linearity of InGaAs photodiodes using series resistance.
