An active feedback network-based bandwidth extension technique for CMOS differential transimpedance amplifier (TIA) is proposed in 0.18 µm CMOS process technology. The design consists of three stages in differential mode. The first stage is a common-source amplifier that minimizes noise. A common collector stage is used for level shifting and buffering in the second stage. The third stage is a differential amplifier that provides additional gain. In addition to these three stages, an active CMOS negative feedback circuit is used for extending the bandwidth. The proposed design achieves a gain of 45.2 dBΩ with a 3 dB bandwidth of 21.23 GHz. The active feedback circuit provides an additional bandwidth of 7.3 GHz. The TIA achieves a data rate of 30 Gb/s with input-referred noise current density of 63.1 pA/ Hz and jitter of 9.07 ps. The TIA consumes a power of 10.3 mW with a supply voltage of 1.8 V.

“…The VLC transceiver consists of a transmitter and a receiver module with the transmitter having a photodiode and the receiver having a photodetector to transmit and receive the light signal respectively [3][4][5][6][7]. A key limitation of VLC systems is the low efficiency of the electro-optical conversion for the photodiode and vice versa which is solved by improvements in LED efficiency as well as the need for larger photodetectors in the receiver to absorb sufficient light [1,2].…”

This paper presents two new inductorless differential variable-gain transimpedance amplifiers (DVGTIA) with voltage bias controlled variable gain designed in TowerJazz’s 0.18 µm SiGe BiCMOS technology (using CMOS transistors only). Both consist of a modified differential cross-coupled regulated cascode preamplifier stage and a cascaded amplifier stage with bias-controlled gain-variation and third-order interleaving feedback. The designs have wide measured transimpedance gain ranges of 24.5–60.6 dBΩ and 27.8–62.8 dBΩ with bandwidth above 6.42 GHz and 5.22 GHz for DVGTIA designs 1 and 2 respectively. The core power consumptions are 30.7 mW and 27.5 mW from a 1.8 V supply and the input referred noise currents are 10.3 pA/√Hz and 21.7 pA/√Hz. The DVGTIA designs 1 and 2 have a dynamic range of 40.4 µA to 3 mA and 76.8 µA to 2.7 mA making both suitable for real photodetectors with an on-chip photodetector capacitive load of 250 fF. Both designs are compact with a core area of 100 µm × 85 µm.
