Abstract
A 1 GHz low- noise preamplifier, especially designed for photodetection purposes is described. The amplifier noise which sets a limit to the sensitivity of the photodiode-preamplifier combination is minimized using a hybrid technology which allows very low values of the parasitics. Results on a complete photodiode-equalized preamplifier are given.
