Abstract: A capacitive transimpedance amplifier for a detector unit capable of generating first and second detection currents comprises: a read-out circuit including an integration capacitor coupled between an input node connected to the detector unit, and a common node between first and second transistors connected in series, and a sampling and holding unit coupled between the first common node and an output node for sampling and holding a voltage at the first common node; and a switch unit connected to control ends of the first and second transistors and the input node, and operable between a first state, where the first detection current is read out, and a second state, where the second detection current is read out.
