Power amplifier

An amplifying transistor for amplifying a radio frequency signal between an input terminal and an output terminal. The cathode of a first diode is connected to the input terminal and the anode of a second diode is connected to the output terminal. A matching and attenuating circuit is connected between the anode of the first diode and the cathode of the second diode. A matching and attenuating circuit reduces impedance mismatches on the input terminal side and the output terminal side, and attenuates the radio frequency signal. In an amplification mode, a bias circuit supplies a bias current to an amplifying transistor and a current mirror circuit turns off the first and second diodes. In an attenuation mode, the bias circuit supplies no bias current to the amplifying transistor and the current mirror circuit turns on the first and second diodes.

Differential trans-impedance amplifier

In conventional high data rate receivers, the transmitted optical signal has poor extinction ratio and translates into a small modulated current with a large DC current, which saturates the receiver TIA and amplifiers, and significantly degrades the gain and bandwidth performance. Consequently, cancelling PD DC current in high data rate receivers is desired for proper operation. Differential TIA schemes, i.e. providing separate AC-coupled and DC-coupled paths, in parallel, provide better linearity for large input currents and low gain settings. To AC couple the PD to the TIA using passive AC-coupling circuitry, an AC-coupling capacitor (CC) is positioned between the PD and the TIA to block the DC current, while passing the modulated AC current to the TIA. A DC cancellation circuit may be provided, without a capacitor, to maintain the receiver input bias while suppressing any DC component generated by the PD for the DC-coupled path.
