本文介绍了一种基于TSMC 0.18-µ m CMOS工艺的2.4-GHz光纤无线电传输系统大驱动电流激光二极管放大器的设计。该驱动放大器采用单端两级放大器结构，工作电压分别为1.8 V和3.6 V，并采用动态偏置技术提高线性度。测试结果表明，该线性放大器在2.4 GHz时，功率增益为16.9 dB，输出1-dB压缩点为20.1 dBm。最大输出调制电流高达64 mA。包括输入输出匹配网络在内的所有元器件均在片上，芯片总面积为1.0 × 0.73 mm2。© 2014 Wiley Periodicals，Inc.微波光学技术快报56：1971 - 1974，2014
This article presented the design of a large drive current laser diode amplifier for 2.4‐GHz radio‐over‐fiber transmission systems in TSMC 0.18‐µm CMOS technology. The proposed drive amplifier adopted a single‐ended two‐stage amplifier structure with the operating voltages of 1.8 and 3.6 V. The technique of dynamic bias is used to enhance linearity. The measurement results show that the linear amplifier achieves the power gain of 16.9 dB, the output 1‐dB compression point of 20.1 dBm at 2.4 GHz. The maximum output modulation current is up to 64 mA. The components are all on chip including the input and output matching network, and the total chip area is 1.0 × 0.73 mm2. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Microwave Opt Technol Lett 56:1971–1974, 2014
