Abstract
An active clamp photoelectric sensing device includes an input terminal, a first output terminal, a current-to-voltage conversion circuit, and an active clamp circuit. The input terminal receives an input current. The first output terminal outputs a first output voltage. The current-to-voltage conversion circuit is coupled between the input terminal and the first output terminal, and is used to discharge and lower potentials of the input terminal and the first output terminal to a first set voltage according to the state of a reset signal, or is used to gradually increase the first output voltage to a second set voltage. The active clamping circuit is coupled to the current-to-voltage conversion circuit, and is used to clamp the upper limit of the first output voltage to the second set voltage.
