Abstract :
A novel transimpedance feedback configuration based around a current-gain amplifier is described which achieves gain-bandwidth independence at microwave frequencies. Full layout simulation indicates that an optical receiver front-end amplifier designed on these principles will exhibit gain-bandwidth independence through the GHz region
