Description du livre
This book describes the newest implementations of
integrated photodiodes fabricated in nanometer standard CMOS technologies. It
also includes the required fundamentals, the state-of-the-art, and the design
of high-performance laser drivers, transimpedance amplifiers, equalizers, and
limiting amplifiers fabricated in nanometer CMOS technologies. This book shows
the newest results for the performance of integrated optical receivers, laser
drivers, modulator drivers and optical sensors in nanometer standard CMOS
technologies. Nanometer CMOS technologies rapidly advanced, enabling
the implementation of integrated optical receivers for high data rates of
several Giga-bits per second and of high-pixel count optical imagers and
sensors. In particular, low cost silicon CMOS optoelectronic integrated
circuits became very attractive because they can be extensively applied to
short-distance optical communications, such as local area network, chip-to-chip
and board-to-board interconnects as well as to imaging and medical sensors.
