Abstract :
In a system to be described a linear array of 27 photodiodes is used to convert optical signals into current pulses that are subsequently converted to voltages with an array of 27 transimpedance amplifiers. The 27 channel system includes photodiodes integrated using an N well CMOS process with 2μ minimum feature sizes.
