Abstract
An 1.25Gbps high sensitivity burst-mode optical receiver is realized using TSMC 0.35um SiGe BiCMOS process. This burst-mode receiver uses PIN photodiode instead of expensive avalanche photodiode to achieve the sensitivity requirement of an OLT receiver in a PON system. With a 0.7pF PIN photodiode, the measured optical sensitivity for 1310nm light achieves -29dBm at 1.25Gbps under BER of 10-12. For burst-mode operation, the receiver provides fully differential output within 50ns after the start of an optical burst.
