iT3042D Datasheet (gigoptix) - 40 Gb/s high-sensitivity limiting amplifier

iT3042D, 40 Gb/s high-sensitivity limiting amplifier

The iT3042D is a MMIC limiter amplifier for use in 40-Gb/s optical communications systems.

Signals at levels as low as +/-25 mVpp differential can be amplified up to 1.0 Vpp differentially.

The design allows an offset correction function, output voltage control, and output power monitoring.
