"HIGH-Sensitivity BiCMOS OEIC for Optical Storage Systems";
IEEE Journal of Solid-State Circuits, vol. 38, issue 4 (2003), S. 579 - 584.

A new BiCMOS optoelectronic integrated circuit (OEIC) for applications in advanced iptical storage systems is presented. It is optimized with respect to high sensitivity and high speed. The photodiode and the amplifier are monotlithically integrated on the same substrate in a commercial 0.8-μm CiCMOS process. Analytical expressions for the compensation capacitors and for the bandwidth of the OCIC are derived. Neglecting antireflection coating, no process modifactions are necessary to produce the integrated photodiodes. A new offset compensation scheme is implemented in the amplifiers to allow for a small chip area and low power consuption. The OEIC shows a sensitivity of 43.3 mV/μW in combination with a - 3-dB bandwidth of 60.2 MHz.
