Abstract

A detection device for tiny current on a laser seeker includes a current-to-voltage transimpedance amplifier circuit, a gain control amplifier circuit, a digital-to-analog conversion circuit, and a power supply circuit; the current-to-voltage transimpedance amplifier circuit is used to convert the weak current signal generated by the diffusely reflected laser pulse signal into a voltage signal; the gain control amplifier circuit is used to further amplify the voltage signal within an optional range; the digital-to-analog conversion circuit is used to dynamically adjust the gain of the gain control amplifier circuit; the digital-to-analog conversion circuit outputs an adjustment analog quantity and sends it to the gain control amplifier circuit, and the gain control amplifier circuit receives the adjustment analog quantity output by the digital-to-analog conversion circuit and dynamically adjusts the amplification factor of the output signal. The present invention can avoid saturation when the laser pulse signal enters the analog-to-digital converter, so that the laser seeker can track the target more quickly and accurately.
