The MAX3825 is a quad transimpedance amplifier (TIA) intended for 2.5Gbps system interconnect applications. Each of the four channels converts a small photodiode current to a measurable differential voltage with a transimpedance gain of 3.7k . The circuit features 460nARMS of input-referred noise per channel corresponding to an optical input sensitivity of -22.3dBm (BER 1 x 10-14). The quad transimpedance amplifier has 20ps of deterministic jitter and a 2.4GHz small-signal bandwidth. The MAX3825 is optimized for use with a quad PIN photodetector array with a standard fiber pitch of 250m.
