The M02015 is a CMOS transimpedance amplifier with AGC. The AGC gives a wide dynamic range of 32 dB. The
high transimpedance gain of 9 kΩ ensures good sensitivity.
For optimum system performance, the M02015 die should be mounted with a GaAs or InGaAs PIN photodetector
inside a lensed TO-Can or other optical sub-assembly.
The M02015 can either bias the PIN diode from the internal regulator or use an externally biased PIN diode.
A replica of the average photodiode current is available at the MON pad for photo-alignment and Receive Power
monitoring (SFF-8472 compliant).

3.1
Overview
The M02015 is a CMOS transimpedance amplifier with AGC. The AGC gives a wide dynamic range of 32 dB. The
high transimpedance gain of 9.0 kΩ ensures good sensitivity.
For optimum system performance, the M02015 die should be mounted with a GaAs or InGaAs PIN photodetector
inside a lensed TO-Can or other optical sub-assembly.
The M02015 can either bias the PIN diode from the internal regulator or use an externally biased PIN diode.
A replica of the average photodiode current is available at the MON pad for photo-alignment and Receive Power

M02015
Low Power CMOS Transimpedance Amplifier with Rx Pwr Mon Output and AGC for Fiber
Optic Networks up to 2.5 Gbps
Rev V6
3.2
General Description
3.2.1
TIA (Transimpedance Amplifier)
The transimpedance amplifier consists of a high gain single-ended CMOS amplifier (TIA) with a feedback resistor.
The feedback creates a virtual ground low impedance at the input and virtually all of the input current passes
through the feedback resistor defining the voltage at the output. Advanced CMOS design techniques are employed
to maintain the stability of this stage across all input conditions.
An on-chip low dropout linear regulator has been incorporated into the design to give excellent noise rejection up to
several MHz. Higher frequency power supply noise is removed by the external 470 pF decoupling capacitor
connected to PINK.
The circuit is designed for PIN photodiodes in the “grounded cathode” configuration, with the anode connected to
the input of the TIA and the cathode connected to AC ground, such as the provided PINK terminal. Reverse DC
bias is applied to reduce the photodiode capacitance. Avalanche photodiodes can be connected externally to a
higher voltage.
3.2.2
AGC
The M02015 has been designed to operate over the input range of +6 dBm to -26 dBm. This represents a ratio of
1:1500 whereas the acceptable dynamic range of the output is only 1:30 which implies a compression of 50:1 in
the transimpedance. The design uses a MOS transistor operating in the triode region as a “voltage controlled
resistor” to achieve the transimpedance variation.
Another feature of the AGC is that it only operates on signals greater than –17 dBm (@0.9 A/W). This knee in the
gain response is important when setting “signal detect” functions in the following post amplifier. It also aids in active
photodiode alignment.
The AGC pad allows the AGC to be disabled during photodiode alignment by grounding the pad through a low
impedance. The AGC control voltage can be monitored during normal operation at this pad by a high impedance
(>10 MΩ) circuit.
3.2.3
Output Stage
The signal from the TIA enters a phase splitter followed by a DC-shift stage and a pair of voltage follower outputs.
These are designed to drive a differential (100Ω) load. They are stable for driving capacitive loads such as
interstage filters. Each output has its own GND pad; all four GND pads on the chip should be connected for proper
operation. Since the M02015 exhibits rapid roll-off (3 pole), simple external filtering is sufficient.
3.2.4
Monitor O/P
High impedance output sources a replica average photodiode current for monitoring purposes. This output is
compatible with the DDMI Receive Power Specification (SFP-8472) and MACOM’s range of DDMI controllers.
Ensure that the voltage on VMON is in the range of 0 to 2V. Refer to Figure 4-1.

Selecting the Monitor Resistor
As described earlier the high impedance monitor output sources a replica average photodiode current for
monitoring purposes. If detected by converting the current to a voltage through an external resistor (Figure 4-1),
ensure that the voltage on VMON is in the range of 0 to 2V. The table below provides suggested values for the
monitor resistor.

Treatment of PINK
PINK requires bypassing to ground with a 470 pF capacitor when powering a photo diode. If PINK is not used to
bias the photo diode, then it is not necessary to bypass an unused PINK.

The M02015 is designed to work with a wirebond inductance of 1 nH ± 0.25 nH. Many existing TO-Can
configurations will not allow wirebond lengths that short, since the PIN diode submount and the TIA die are more

than 1 mm away in the vertical direction, due to the need to have the PIN diode in the correct focal plane. This can
be remedied by raising up the TIA die with a conductive metal shim. This will effectively reduce the bond wire
length. Refer to Figure 4-4 above for details.
MACOM recommends ball bonding with a 1 mil (25.4 µm) gold wire. For performance reasons the PINA pad is
smaller than the others and also has less via material connected to it. It therefore requires more care in setting of
the bonding parameters. For the same reason PINA has no ESD protection.
In addition, please refer to the MACOM Product Bulletin (document number 0201X-PBD-002). Care must be taken
when selecting chip capacitors, since they must have good low ESR characteristics up to 1.0 GHz. It is also
important that the termination materials of the capacitor be compatible with the attach method used.
For example, Tin/Lead (Pb/Sn) solder finish capacitors are incompatible with silver-filled epoxies. Palladium/Silver
(Pd/Ag) terminations are compatible with silver filled epoxies. Solder can be used only if the substrate thick-film
inks are compatible with Pb/Sn solders.
4.5.2
Recommended Assembly Procedures
For ESD protection the following steps are recommended for TO-Can assembly:
a. Ensure good humidity control in the environment (to help minimize ESD).
b. Consider using additional ionization of the air (also helps minimize ESD).
c. As a minimum, it is best to ensure that the body of the TO-can header or the ground lead of the header is
grounded through the wire-bonding fixture for the following steps. The best solution also ensures that the VCC
lead of the TO-Can is also grounded. When this is done and the procedure below is followed, any positive
charge on the wire bonder when bonding to PINA (the very last bond placed) will have the PD acting as an
ESD diode into PinK of the device. Internally, PinK has an ESD diode between it and VCC that will turn on if
VCC is at ground minimizing the ESD event at PINA.
d. The wire bonder (including the spool, clamp, etc.) must also be grounded.
1. Wire-bond the ground pad(s) of the die first.
2. Then wire bond the VCC pad to the TO-Can lead.
3. Then wire bond any other pads going to the TO-Can leads (such as DOUT, DOUT and possibly MON).
4. Next wire-bond any capacitors inside the TO-Can.
5. Inside the TO-Can, wire bond PINK.
6. The final step is to wire bond PINA.

TIA Use with Externally Biased Detectors
In some applications, MACOM TIAs are used with detectors biased at a voltage greater than available from TIA
PIN cathode supply. This works well if some basic cautions are observed. When turned off, the input to the TIA
exhibits the following I/V characteristic:

After the TIA is turned on, the DC servo and AGC circuits attempt to null any input currents (up to the absolute
maximum stated in Table 1-1) as shown by the I/V curve in Figure 4-6.

It can be seen that any negative voltage below 200 mV is nulled and that any positive going voltage above the
PINA standing voltage is nulled by the DC servo. The DC servo upper bandwidth varies from part to part, but is
generally at least 30 kHz.
When externally biasing a detector such as an APD where the supply voltage of the APD exceeds that for PINA
Table 1-1, care should be taken to power up the TIA first and to keep the TIA powered up until after the power
supply voltage of the APD is removed. Failure to do this with the TIA unpowered may result in damage to the input
FET gate at PINA. In some cases the damage may be very subtle, in that nearly normal operation may be
experienced with the damage causing slight reductions in bandwidth and corresponding reductions in input
sensitivity.

for improved performance in noisy environments.
