MATLAB amplifier in detail

The model of the SiPM amplifier is a system of 24 equations in 24 variables that has been linearized so that it can be solved by MATLAB.

Parameters and variables

The MATLAB model has a number of parameters and variables to describe the amplifier circuit, including the 24 unknowns, 4 inputs, and numerous constants.

Input parameters

There are four input parameters:

• Bias voltage: $V_{b}$ (V)
• Power voltage: $V_{c}$ (V)
• Frequency: $f$ (Hz)

Unknown variables

There are twenty-four unknown variables. The locations (and directions in the case of currents) are labeled on the circuit diagram.
