PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AD8015 is a wide bandwidth, single supply transimpedance
amplifier optimized for use in a fiber optic receiver circuit. It is a
complete, single chip solution for converting photodiode current
into a differential voltage output. The 240 MHz bandwidth enables
AD8015 application in FDDI receivers and SONET/SDH
receivers with data rates up to 155 Mbps. This high bandwidth
supports data rates beyond 300 Mbps. The differential outputs
drive ECL directly, or can drive a comparator/ fiber optic post
amplifier.
In addition to fiber optic applications, this low cost, silicon al-
ternative to GaAs-based transimpedance amplifiers is ideal for
systems requiring a wide dynamic range preamplifier or single-
ended to differential conversion. The IC can be used with a
standard ECL power supply (–5.2 V) or a PECL (+5 V) power
supply; the common mode at the output is ECL compatible.
The AD8015 is available in die form, or in an 8-pin SOIC
package.
