Abstract: The design and fabrication of a high speed,12-channel monolithic integrated CMOS optoelectronic integrated circuit (OEIC) receiver are reported.Each channel of the receiver consists of a photodetector,a transimpedance amplifier,and a post-amplifier.The double photodiode structure speeds up the receiver but hinders responsivity.The adoption of active inductors in the TIA circuit extends the -3dB bandwidth to a higher level.The receiver has been realized in a CSMC 0.6μm standard CMOS process.The measured results show that a single channel of the receiver is able to work at bit rates of 0.8～1.4Gb/s.Altogether,the 12-channel OEIC receiver chip can be operated at 15Gb/s.
