Abstract
This paper reports state-of-the-art mixed signal ICs, including a distributed amplifier and a multiplexer-core intended for use in 100 Gbit/s optical communication systems (Ethernet). Using a manufacturable InP DHBT technology, exhibiting current gains of > 80 and cut-off frequencies (f(ind T) and f(ind max)) of > 300 GHz, the broadband amplifier achieved a gain of 21 dB and a 3-dB bandwidth of 95 GHz (GxBW > 1 THz), whereas, the 2:1 multiplexer-core has been tested at data rates up to 138 Gbit/s.
