J. Sevenhans et al., CMOS LED DRIVER AND PIN RECEIVER FOR FIBER OPTICAL COMMUNICATION AT 150 MBIT SEC/, Analog integrated circuits and signal processing, 4(1), 1993, pp. 31-35
A test chip for an integrated full CMOS LED driver has been realized w
ith a modulation current of 60 mA at a maximum bit rate of 155 Mb/s. A
CMOS receiver is evaluated to amplify PIN diode photocurrents less th
an 10 muA at the same bit rate of 155 Mb/s. Both circuits are integrat
ed on one chip. The circuit has been developed in a 0.8-mum digital CM
OS process.
