A broadband, low-noise HEMT preamplifier is designed for very high-speed fibre-optic transmission systems. A 20 GHz 3dB down bandwidth and 7.6pA/√(Hz) averaged input equivalent noise current density from 100 MHz to 18 GHz are achieved using inductor peaking techniques and low stray capacitance chip resistors.
