摘要：

A noise analysis for a Common-Collector-Cascode traveling wave HBT preamplifier is developed. The photoreceiver, consisting of a P-I-N and GaAs HBT MMIC distributed amplifier, was implemented using Nortel's f(T) = 70 GHz daAs HBT process, is the first to have a P-I-N mounted on the MMIC chip. The P-I-N preamplifier, having a measured bandwidth of 22 GHz, displayed a measured average equivalent input noise current density of 24 pA/rootHz. Good agreement was obtained between the predicted and measured noise performance.
