Integrated CMOS Circuits for Optical Communications (2004)Hardcover - 2004, 27 October 2003

This book presents several circuits that are required for the full integration of an optical transmitter in standard CMOS. The main emphasis is placed on high-speed receivers with a bitrate of up to 1 Gb/s. The possibility of including the photodiode in a receiver is investigated and the problems encountered are discussed.
