Abstract:
Split cascode circuits include multiple cascode paths coupled between voltage supply rails. Each cascode path includes a pair of controllable switches. A feedback path is provided for at least one of the cascode circuit paths. An active load circuit may also have a split cascode structure. Multiple-stage circuits, for implementation in Trans-Impedance Amplifiers (TIAs) or analog Receive Front-End modules (RXFEs), for example, include multiple stages of split cascode circuits.

Claim (Index 19):
An optical module comprising:\n an optical IO (input/output) and an electrical IO; a photo-diode for performing direct detection on an incoming optical signal received at the optical IO to produce a direct detection output; a trans-impedance amplifier (TIA) that amplifies the direct detection output; a PAM ASIC configured to perform PAM demodulation an output of the TIA to produce a signal at the electrical IO and to perform PAM modulation based on an incoming electrical signal at the electrical IO; a laser that outputs an optical signal at the optical IO having a PAM modulated E-field based on the output of the PAM modulation, wherein at least one of the TIA and the PAM ASIC comprises the device of  claim 12 .
