10/11.3 Gb/s Limiting Transimpedance Amplifier wit

Overview

Gennum's GN1055 is a fully integrated silicon germanium (SiGe) BiCMOS transimpedance amplifier, providing wideband, low noise pre-amplification of a current from a PIN photodiode or APD.
It features differential outputs. A decoupling capacitor on the supply is the only external component required.

Key Applications

SONET/SDH-based transmission systems, test equipment and modules
OC-192 fibre optic modules and line termination
10 Gigabit Ethernet
Fibre Channel
Serial data systems up to 11.3 Gb/s
