Abstract
A single-chip optical receiver with an integrated equalizer is used to achieve a
high performance gigabit transmission over step-index plastic optical fiber (SI-POF).
The integrated equalizer can compensate for different POF lengths up to 50 m. The
integrated optical receiver is fabricated in a low-cost silicon 0.6 μm BiCMOS
technology and has a power consumption of 100 mW. Real-time transmission at data rates
of 1.8 Gbit/s over 20 m SI-POF and 1.25 Gbit/s over 50 m SI-POF with high sensitivities
and BER of $10<sup>-9</sup> is achieved. The optical transmitter is based on an edge emitting
laser.
