Abstract :
Analogue to digital convertors (ADCs) operating at unprecedented speeds and resolutions are investigated using photonics and electronics techniques, with stringent constraints placed on receiver linearity and noise. This paper presents design and performance considerations of photodetectors and associated preamplifiers
