* Introduction :ignore:
The goal of this test bench is to characterize the Voltage amplifier [[https://www.piezodrive.com/drivers/pd200-60-watt-voltage-amplifier/][PD200]] from PiezoDrive.
2020-12-16 16:21:54 +01:00
The documentation of the PD200 is accessible [[file:doc/PD200-V7-R1.pdf][here]].

* Voltage Amplifier Model
2020-12-16 16:21:54 +01:00
The Amplifier is characterized by its dynamics $G_a(s)$ from voltage inputs $V_{in}$ to voltage output $V_{out}$.
2020-12-15 23:03:14 +01:00
Ideally, the gain from $V_{in}$ to $V_{out}$ is constant over a wide frequency band with very small phase drop.
2020-12-16 16:21:54 +01:00
It is also characterized by its output noise $n$.
2020-12-15 23:03:14 +01:00
This noise is described by its Power Spectral Density.

* Noise measurement
2020-12-16 16:21:54 +01:00
** Setup
2020-12-15 23:03:14 +01:00
#+begin_note
Here are the documentation of the equipment used for this test bench:
- Voltage Amplifier [[file:doc/PD200-V7-R1.pdf][PD200]]
- Load Capacitor [[file:doc/0900766b815ea422.pdf][EPCOS 10μF Multilayer Ceramic Capacitor]]
- Low Noise Voltage Amplifier [[file:doc/egg-5113-preamplifier.pdf][EG&G 5113]]
- Speedgoat ADC [[file:doc/IO131-OEM-Datasheet.pdf][IO313]]
#+end_note
2020-12-16 16:21:54 +01:00
The output noise of the voltage amplifier PD200 is foreseen to be around 1mV rms in a bandwidth from DC to 1MHz.
If we suppose a white noise, this correspond to an amplitude spectral density:
\begin{equation}
\phi_{n} \approx \frac{1\,mV}{\sqrt{1\,MHz}} = 1 \frac{\mu V}{\sqrt{Hz}}
\end{equation}
The RMS noise begin very small compare to the ADC resolution, we must amplify the noise before digitizing the signal.
The added noise of the instrumentation amplifier should be much smaller than the noise of the PD200.
We use the amplifier EG&G 5113 that have a noise of $\approx 4 nV/\sqrt{Hz}$ referred to its input which is much smaller than the noise induced by the PD200.
The gain of the low-noise amplifier can be increased until the full range of the ADC is used.
This gain should be around 1000.
