Abstract :
A new hybrid design approach for high frequency, high gain transconductors is proposed. The idea is based upon the combination of FETs and optical devices. Measured results of a high frequency high Q active filter and a high DC gain FET operational amplifier are presented, employing the optoelectronic approach
