Abstract
In this chapter, the main limitations of the low-cost optical channel, such as attenuation and bandwidth–length product, are introduced. The selected technique to compensate the low speed based on equalization is then analyzed. Thus, a fully integrated front-end receiver implemented in 0.18 lm CMOS technology, using the previously presented TIA and post-amplifier plus an adaptive equalizer and a photodiode monitor, is proposed for fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) applications at 1.25 Gb/s transmission speed on POF.
