Th. Tsaur et al., HIGH-SPEED CMOS LOW-NOISE CURRENT-MODE PREAMPLIFIER WITH LARGE CAPACITIVE INPUT FOR NONDIRECTIVE INFRARED DATA COMMUNICATION, Electronics Letters, 34(7), 1998, pp. 657-658
A novel CMOS high-speed low-noise current-mode preamplifier is propose
d for large capacitive input. For a 50 pF photodiode capacitance, it i
s shown that the f(2) noise level is successfully suppressed to a leve
l comparable with the background-light shot noise at 20 MHz.
