Commercial STM-64 (OC-192) operating near 10Gb/s and STM-256 (OC-768) operating near 40Gb/s are the main streams today. In recent years, the deep submicron CMOS technology has competitive high-frequency characteristics with high-speed Ⅲ-Ⅴ devices and is gradually used in high-speed circuits. The lower cost and higher level of integration make it more attractive than high-cost III-V technology for commercial use. In this thesis, a 10-Gb/s tunable transimpedance amplifier (TIA) and a 45.6-GHz matrix distributed amplifier are implemented in a standard 0.18-μm CMOS process. The tunable TIA incorporates a regulated cascode (RGC) input buffer, shunt-peaking technique, voltage-current feedback topology and the applications of variable feedback and load resistors to achieve a 45~52-dBΩ tuning range of transimpedance gain and a 7~10-GHz tuning range of bandwidth at a 2.2-V supply voltage. Total power consumption including output buffer is 32 mW. The whole chip size is 0.83 x 0.66 mm2. The novel matrix distributed amplifier employs a 2x4 matrix architecture. The proposed circuit adopts interleaving-central-line architecture and cascode gain stages for gain and bandwidth enhancement. Optimized CPW is used to implement the required inductors. With a power consumption of 497mW, a gain of 6.7 dB and a 3-dB bandwidth of 45.6 GHz are measured. The whole die size is 1.8x1.05 mm2.Acknowledgements Abstracts Ⅰ Table of Contents Ⅴ List of Figures Ⅶ List of Tables Ⅸ Chapter 1 Introduction 1 1.1 Motivation 1 1.2 Thesis Overview 6 Chapter 2 Optical Communication System Background and Requirements 7 2.1 Introduction of Optical Communication System 7 2.2 Basic Concepts 8 2.2.1 Date Rates 9 2.2.2 NRZ Data Format 9 2.2.3 Receiver Sensitivity and Bit Error Rate (BER) 9 2.2.4 Eye Diagram 11 2.3 Design Considerations of Broadband Amplifier Bandwidth in Optical Communication System 13 2.3.1 Effect of Bandwidth Limitation on Eye Diagram 13 2.3.2 Tradeoff of Bandwidth between Noise and ISI 14 Chapter 3 Design of 10-Gb/s CMOS Tunable Transimpedance Amplifier 18 3.1 Introduction 18 3.2 Proposed Tunable Transimpedance Amplifier 21 3.2.1 Regulated Cascode Input Current Buffer 21 3.2.2 Tunable Transimpedance Amplifier 23 3.3 Experimental Results 25 3.3.1 S-parameter Measurement 25 3.3.2 Eye Diagram Measurement 29 3.3.3 Performance Summary 31 3.3.4 Discussion 32 3.4 Revised Tunable Transimpedance Amplifier 34 3.4.1 Circuit Design 35 3.2.2 Simulation Results 37 3.4.3 Performance Summary 38 3.5 Conclusion 39 Chapter 4 Design of 45.6-GHz CMOS Matrix Distributed Amplifier 40 4.1 Introduction 40 4.2 Basic Principle of Conventional CMOS Matrix Distributed Amplifiers 41 4.3 Proposed Matrix Distributed Amplifier 46 4.3.1 Circuit Design 46 4.3.2 Device Selection 49 4.3.3 Cascode Gain Cell Design 52 4.3.4 Coplanar Waveguide Inductor Design 55 4.4 Experimental Results 58 4.4.1 S-parameter Measurement 58 4.4.2 Eye Diagram Measurement 61 4.4.3 Discussion 62 4.5 Performance Summary 64 Chapter 5 Conclusion 662263684 bytesapplication/pdfen-US寬頻放大器可調式轉阻放大器矩陣分散式放大器互補式金氧半broadband amplifiertunable transimpedance amplifiermatrix distributed amplifiercmosthesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/57498/1/ntu-94-R92943009-1.pdf
