Abstract :
A 4.0-GB/s NMOS laser driver has been designed and fabricated in 0.75-μm technology with a typical Leff=0.65 μm. The IC provides an adjustable modulation current pulse of 20-60 mA into an equivalent 25-Ω load. The rise and fall times (10 to 90%) are approximately 70 ps and 120 ps, respectively with a V DD=3.3 V±10%
