Abstract :
A transimpedance amplifier with an integrated photodiode in a 0.6 μm BiCMOS technology is described. A transimpedance of 178 kΩ and a bandwidth of 378 MHz for DVD applications are achieved with capacitively-coupled voltage dividers in the feedback path. An optical fiber receiver achieves a sensitivity of -30.4 dBm at 1 Gb/s.
