Abstract: An integrated laser and optical modulator driver for ultra-high speed optic-fiber communication systems is designed and fabricated in a 0.2μm gate length AlGaAs/InGaAs/GaAs pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistor (PHEMT) process.The circuit consists of two stages of differential amplifiers with source follower pairs,a capacitive coupled current amplifier,and an output circuit.The driver IC occupies a die area of 1.0mm×0.9mm.Under a single supply of +5V,the power consumption is about 1.5W.Open eye diagrams are measured at a bit rate of up to 24Gb/s with a 2.4Vp-p voltage swing.It can be used in synchronous digital hierarchy transmission systems of optic-fiber communication.
