Design and Simulation of Low Power Differential Transimpedance Amplifier Using Degenerations Capacitors

Abstract

In today’s internet-connected culture, high-speed data transmission techniques are in high demand. Optical communication is most used techniques for data transmission with speed. High-speed amplifiers are needed, nevertheless, to obtain high gains and transform current signals into voltage gains. This is accomplished via transimpedance amplifiers, a crucial component of optical receivers. In this work, a high-speed transimpedance amplifier with negative degeneration capacitors and complete differential operation is built. The proposed design has a transimpedance gain of approximately 52.4 dB at 19.8 GHz and an average input-referred noise current of roughly 23.3 pA/√Hz. The suggested circuit also has an high gain, and low input-referred noise, excellent bandwidth all of which contribute to its low power consumption of roughly 215 uW. This makes it appropriate for Internet of Things (IoT) devices, smart devices, mobile phones, laptops, and other computer peripherals.
