30 Gb/s Parallel Optic-Fiber Receiver ICs Design

摘要

A 30 Gb/s parallel optic-fiber receiver structure is presented. Parallel receiver amplifiers of 12 channels have been designed using TSMC 0.25μm CMOS technology and for single-channel bit rate of 2.5 Gb/s. The total DC current of the parallel receiver amplifiers is about 0.54 A at a 3.3-V supply, corresponding to a power consumption of 1.78W. The voltage swing at each single-end output is 400 mVp-p.
