A 112-Gb/s, -10 dBm Sensitivity, +5 dBm Overload, and SiPh-Based Receiver Frontend in 22-nm FDSOI
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This letter demonstrates a Si-Photonic (SiPh)-based 112 Gb/s PAM4 optical receiver frontend using novel single-ended transimpedance amplifier (TIA) architecture that achieves −10 and +5 dBm input optical modulation amplitude (OMA) sensitivity and overload, respectively. To achieve that an overload mitigation circuit is proposed to break the tradeoff between noise and linearity of the shunt feedback CMOS TIAs. The TIA is optimized to provide the best sensitivity and linearity performance at minimum and maximum input OMA, respectively. Implemented in 22-nm FDSOI technology, and designed for 112 Gb/s PAM4 optical links, the TIA achieves more than +15 dBm OMA range with 11 pA/$\surd $Hz input referred noise while burning only 155 mW from an 1.8-V supply.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
