摘要：
Precision measurement of optical signal power is provided. In one implementation, a Wilson current mirror senses current through an avalanche photodiode (APD) that has been exposed to the optical signal. The output of this APD may also be used to recover data. By incorporating a high voltage transistor as the buffer, the Wilson current mirror is able to operate in series with the APD at a high bias level.
