Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0003-3629-0540 Gigabit Receiver over 1-mm SI-POF for Home Area Networks 2012 Access copy available to the general public Unrestricted A novel receiver front-end is proposed for short-range optical communications over low-cost polymer optical fiber and, in particular, for home area networks. This paper focuses on the experimental verification of the IC prototype POFchip-II, implemented in a standard 0.18- μ m CMOS technology plus a commercial Si-PIN photodetector and a 1 mm step-index plastic optical fiber (POF) transmission channel. A 1.25 Gb/s data transmission rate is attained for POF lengths ranging from 10 to 50 m thanks to a continuous-time adaptive equalizer included in the receiver chain that compensates the limited and length-dependent speed of POF. The measured sensitivity of the receiver leads to an eye-safety approach up to almost 30 m reach. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MICINN-FEDER/TEC2008-05455/TEC info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MICINN-FEDER/TEC2011-23211 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 2.555 2012 ENGINEERING, ELECTRICAL & ELECTRONIC 32 / 243 = 0.132 2012 Q1 T1 TELECOMMUNICATIONS 6 / 76 = 0.079 2012 Q1 T1 OPTICS 11 / 80 = 0.138 2012 Q1 T1 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion Sánchez-Azqueta, C.
