10-Gb/s Limiting Amplifier and Laser/Modulator Driver in 0.18um CMOS Technology
by
Sherif Galal, Student Member, IEEE, and Behzad Razavi, Fellow, IEEE
Abstract
A limiting amplifier incorporates active feedback,
inductive peaking, and negative Miller capacitance to achieve a
voltage gain of 50 dB, a bandwidth of 9.4 GHz, and a sensitivity
of 4.6 mVpp for a bit-error rate of 10 12 while consuming
150mW. A driver employs T-coil peaking and negative impedance
conversion to achieve operation at 10 Gb/s while delivering a
current of 100 mA to 25- lasers or a voltage swing of 2 Vpp to
50- modulators with a power dissipation of 675 mW. Fabricated
in 0.18- m CMOS technology, both prototypes operate with a
1.8-V supply.
