Photodiode Pulser Circuit
Attached is a short page describing a photodiode pulser that can be used to test charge sensitive and other preamp circuits. Using this pulser, one obtains accurate results for charge sensitive amplifier fall time. The circuit is a touch slower than a PMT, but a whole lot easier to build and power, and smaller to boot. Any fast photodiode could be used in place of the SFH203 cited in the schematic.

Does anyone have this file?

Re: Photodiode Pulser Circuit
I do not know about the original file but I use this one to test SPIMs and PMT's
Note it uses a very high voltage to get the necessary dI/dT through the blue LED
