Abstract

A new class of receivers for optical applications is described. The novelty of the design is the high speed stage. The receiver is designed for low noise, high bandwidth and high transimpedance-bandwidth product. The receiver is driving a 50 Ω load. Post simulations on chip with all capacitance parasitics and a 0.5 pF diode capacitance, gives a 1.3 GHz bandwidth. For an input diode current of 1 uA=zero and 10 uA=one, the output signal is 0.15 V peak to peak and the output SNR is 23 dB
