Abstract
A 10 Gbit/s bipolar laser driver fabricated in InP-InGaAs HBT technology is reported. Typically, the circuit delivers 100 mA of modulation current and 50 mA of DC current with less than 1 W power dissipation. Low jitter and fast rise and fall times are responsible for a clean output eye pattern.
