Abstract :
This paper describes a receiver suitable for 10 Gigabit Ethernet fiber optical networks in the standard LX4. Designed in low-cost CMOS 0.18 mum digital technology, the system is based on CMOS actively loaded inverter structures and works with a single 1.8 V supply voltage. The changes in the operating points due to temperature are minimized between -20 and 80degC by using two compensation techniques. The system presents optimized area and power consumption achieving good trade-off between all important magnitudes.
