In this paper, a novel current-mode transimpedance amplifier (TIA) exploiting the common gate input stage with common source active feedback has been realized in CHRT 0.18 µm -1.8 V RFCMOS technology. The proposed active feedback TIA input stage is able to achieve a low input impedance similar to th...
