Abstract :
This paper presents the design of a high-speed analog transversal equalizer for dispersion compensation in 10Gbit/s fiber networks. We present design details of a seven tap transversal equalizer with delay amplifiers and tap variable gain amplifiers. The seven tap equalizer is implemented in a 47GHz SiGe technology.
