The present invention is related to methods and apparatus that compensate for quadrature impairments of an analog quadrature modulator and/or demodulator over a relatively wide signal bandwidth. One embodiment pre-distorts baseband signals in a quadrature modulator compensation signal processor (QMCSP) to negate the quadrature impairment of an analog quadrature modulator and corrects a received baseband signal in a quadrature demodulator compensation signal processor (QDCSP) to cancel the quadrature impairment of an analog quadrature demodulator. The QMCSP and the QDCSP contain adaptive digital filter correction structures that pre-compensate and post-compensate, respectively, for the quadrature impairments introduced by the analog quadrature modulator and the analog quadrature demodulator over a relatively wide bandwidth. A phase shifter advantageously shifts the phase of a local oscillator signal to the analog quadrature demodulator to distinguish quadrature impairments introduced by the modulation path from quadrature impairments introduced by the demodulation path.

An ultra-low noise, high gain interface pixel amplifier is provided with capability for single-photon readout of standard photodetectors at high electrical bandwidths for diverse spectral bandpass from the x-ray to long IR bands. The detector charge modulates a source follower whose output is double sampled to remove correlated noise by a compact stage that also provides optimum level shift for subsequent amplification of the full signal excursion. The level-shifted signal finally drives a compact amplifier that generates a robust end-to-end transimpedance. Single-photon readout of photodetectors at high electrical bandwidths in small pixel areas is thereby facilitated.
