Abstract
A 5Gb/s cross coupled transimpedance amplifier (TIA) & limiting amp(LA), regulated cascode(RGC) is realized in a 0.18$\mu$m CMOS technology for optical printed circuit board applications. The optical receiver demonstrates $92.8db{\Omega}$ transimpedance and limiting amplifier gain, 5Gb/s bandwidth for 0.5pF photodiode capacitance, and 9.74mW power dissipation from 1.8V, 2.4V supply. Input stage impedance is $50{\Omega}$. The circuit was implemented on an optical PCB, and the 5Gb/s data output signal was measured with a good data eye opening.
