본 논문에서는 자체 바이어스가 되는 Folded Cascode CMOS OP Amp를 이용하여 싱글 픽셀 포톤 계수기 회로를 설계하였다. 전압 바이어스 회로가 필요 없으므로 싱글 픽셀의 레이아웃 면적을 줄이고 전류 소모를 줄일 수 있다. 매그나칩 반도체 $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS 공정을 이용하여 설계된 CSA(Charge Sensitive Amplifier)의 신호 전압은 이론치인 151mV이 근접한 138mV로 simulation되었다. 그리고 싱글 픽셀의 레이아웃 크기는 $100{\mu}m{\times}100{\mu}m$이다.

An optical transmitter, which is a key component of the optical transmission system, converts the electrical signal to optical signal and consists of a high-speed current-pulse driver for laser diode and low-speed feedback loops that stabilize optical power against aging, power supply voltage fluctuations, and ambient temperature changes. In this paper, the power-stabilizing part, which forms the bulk of the optical transmitter circuitry was designed in integrted circuits. Operational amplifiers and reference voltage generation circuits, which were identified as key building blocks for the power-stabilizing feedback loops, were designed and were subsequently verified through HSPICE simulations. The designed operational amplifier consists of a two-stage folded cascode amplifier and class AB output stage, whereas the reference voltage is obtained by bandgap reference circuits. Finally the power-stabilizing circuitry was laid out based on 3\mu$m CMOS design rules for fabrication.
