A 5Gb/s Optical Receiver Front-End in 0.18 m CMOS Technology
نویسنده
چکیده
A 5Gb/s optical receiver front-end for optical interconnection is presented in this paper. A transimpedance amplifier (TIA), limiting amplifiers (LA), output buffer and a bias circuit are integrated in deep Nwell 0.18 m CMOS technology. As the input current amplitude is 30 A, the differential output voltage is achieved to be 124 mV. The linear gain is 78.8dB and consumes 200mW under 1.8V supply. Without on-chip inductor, the core size of the circuit is only 800 300 m.

متن کاملA New Analog-based LO Harmonic Rejection Technique with Tunable Notch Frequency
An effective technique for mixer LO harmonic rejection in a SAW-less wideband receiver front-end is proposed. The proposed technique provides a tunable notch that can be placed at any frequency like mixer LO harmonics, to avoid the aliasing in baseband after mixing. An analog LC notch is used in a cascode transconductor, and it can reject one of the 3rd or 5th harmonics. T...
