Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, the bandwidth of 3.5GHz photodiodes is much lower than that of 7GHz photodiodes. Under the premise of ensuring the same performance, how to overcome the reduction of bandwidth caused by the use of low-bandwidth photodiodes and avoid the bandwidth of the system combining photodiodes and transimpedance amplifiers The influence of the intersymbol interference generated by the reduction on the sensitivity has become a difficult problem
[0004] In addition, the process selection of the transimpedance amplifier itself must also avoid expensive special processes such as SiGe, and cannot be better than the mainstream design of CMOS processes at current transmission rates, otherwise it will violate the original intention of saving costs
Therefore, limited by the process performance, the transimpedance amplifier needs to overcome other problems such as the increase of noise, the increase of group delay change, the reduction of dynamic range and the increase of power consumption while the bandwidth is increased.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of communication, and in particular relates to an amplification method using a low-cost overfrequency high-speed transimpedance amplifier. Background technique [0002] Reducing the cost of optical communication under the premise of increasing communication speed and ensuring transmission quality is the key for modern companies to win in market competition. In the field of 10G PON optical communication, in order to further reduce communication costs, it is first necessary to start with optical devices that account for a large proportion of the cost. On the front-end side of the optical receiver, changing the avalanche photodiode APD adapted to the transimpedance amplifier TIA from a high-bandwidth product to a lower-bandwidth product is one of the starting directions, such as replacing the original bandwidth of about 7GHz photodiode with a bandwidth 3.5GHz or lower photodiodes. [0003] However, the bandwi...
