“…The CMOS active devices have low transconductance and low breakdown voltage, and the passive components have low quality factor and high loss, which make it difficult to achieve high reliability LD drive amplifier. Therefore, designing a high power, high linearity, and high efficiency RF linear amplifier in CMOS technology becomes a challenge but also a hotspot in nowadays international research .…”

This article presented the design of a large drive current laser diode amplifier for 2.4-GHz radio-over-fiber transmission systems in TSMC 0.18-mm CMOS technology. The proposed drive amplifier adopted a single-ended two-stage amplifier structure with the operating voltages of 1.8 and 3.6 V. The technique of dynamic bias is used to enhance linearity. The measurement results show that the linear amplifier achieves the power gain of 16.9 dB, the output 1-dB compression point of 20.1 dBm at 2.4 GHz. The maximum output modulation current is up to 64 mA. The components are all on chip including the input and output matching network, and the total chip area is 1.0 3 0.73 mm 2 .

peak of the received frequency response is far above the noise floor. This therefore, clarifies the possibility of implementing the proposed system for quasidistributed sensing in remote area. CONCLUSIONA robust fiber optic sensor with enabling capability of eliminating flimsiness in earlier vibration sensor has been explored. The sensor used two coupled collimators which operation is based on simple intensity modulation. A frequency range between 0 and 180 Hz was successfully measured with sensitivity of 6.6 Hz per unit DC driving voltage and this could be further extended if more voltage is applied to the box. The range of frequency measured revealed the suitability of the proposed sensor for remote vibration monitoring in bridge, electrical power generator, and structures that exhibit low vibration within the range.

The design of an analog laser diode (LD) driver for 5GHz radio-over-fiber (ROF) transmission systems is presented in this paper. The proposed linear LD driver adopted a single-ended two-stage amplifier structure with the operating voltages of 1.8V and 3.3V respectively. The technique of self-biased cascade amplifier is employed to increase the gain and alleviate the danger of gate oxide breakdown. The simulation results show that the analog amplifier achieves the power gain of 35dB and the output 1dB compression point of 18dBm at 5GHz. The corresponding output modulation current is up to 50mA at the 1dB compression point. The total chip area is only 710μm×580μm with the all on chip input and output matching network, and the power consumption is 130mW.
