Abstract :
A simplified approach for the design of low-noise bipolar preamplifiers for optical receivers is presented. Analytical solutions for optimum biasing and minimum equivalent input-noise current are derived. Experimental measurements on 100 MHz bandwidth preamplifiers are in good agreement with both analytical solution and CAD model analysis.
