Abstract :
This paper describes two kinds of Si-analog ICs, a preamplifier IC and a decision IC consisting of a gain-controllable amplifier and a D-type flip flop (D-F/F) for a 20 Gb/s optical receiver. A 20 Gb/s optical receiver for the generation beyond 10 Gb/s has been fabricated in hybrid circuit technology. However, the development of high-speed analog ICs operating at 20 Gb/s, making possible reduced system size, is indispensable for stable system operation in practical application.<>
