Abstract
Four-channel receiver arrays have been fabricated by monolithically integrating diffused InGaAs JFET-based electronics with InGaAs pin photodiodes. Cascode and simple inverter transimpedance amplifier circuits have been produced, both of which use a micro-FET as a tunable feedback element to vary bandwidth between 20 and 800 MHz. A sensitivity of -28.2 dBm was achieved at 1.25 Gbit/s with crosstalk between adjacent channels of -50 dB (electrical).
