  • Abstract
    TIA´s were designed with transimpedance gains of 230 Ω and 240 Ω, with corresponding bandwidths of 30 GHz and 29 GHz, respectively. Because the simulated results in the 50 Ω test environment match reasonably well with the measured results, it is expected that the TIA performance, when packaged with an appropriate photodiode, will improve, as the simulated results for a TIA with a photodiode indicate.
