  • Abstract
    A laser driver is designed in a 0.75-μm NMOS technology to modulate laser diodes at 1.7 Gb/s with an adjustable modulation current from 10-50 mA and rise/fall times of 250-300 ps. This IC operates over a supply voltage of 3.3 V±10%, an input voltage of 4-1.2 V, a temperature range of -55 to +100°C and a normal processing range with a measured bit-error-rate of 3×10-11 at a received power of -32.8 dBm
