The receiver consists of a regulated cascade (RGC) transimpedance amplifier (TIA) and a double photodiode (DPD) detector. The noise and sensitivity of the receiver are analyzed in detail. The noise mainly comes from the thermal noise of resistors and the flicker noise of MOSFETs. The relationship between noise and receiver sensitivity is presented. The sensitivity design method for the receiver is given by a set of equations. The OEIC receiver was implemented in a CSMC 0.6μm standard CMOS process. The measured eye diagram shows that the CMOS OEIC receiver is able to work at bit rates of up to 1.25GB/s and the sensitivity is - 12dBm.展开更多

A silicon-based photo-diode and receiver circuits are integrated on identical substrates in order to eliminate the parasitics induced by hybrid packaging. Implemented in the present deep sub-micron MS/RF (mixed signal, radio frequency) CMOS,this monolithically OEIC takes advantage of several new features to improve the performance of the photo-diode and eventually the whole OEIC.展开更多

Six stages are cascaded to provide an 81dB digitally controlled gain range in a 3dB step. The gain step error is less than 0.5dB. It operates at an intermediate frequency of 300kHz, and the power consumption is 1.35mW from a 1.8V supply. The prototype chip is implemented in a TSMC's 0.18μm 1P6M CMOS process and occupies approximately 0.24mm^2 . It is very suitable for portable wire- less communication systems. The measurement results agree well with the system requirements.展开更多
