Semtech GN1056
10/11.3Gbps Linear Transimpedance Amplifier

The Gennum® GN1056 is a fully integrated silicon germanium (SiGe) BiCMOS transimpedance amplifier, providing wideband low noise pre-amplification of a current signal from a PIN photodiode or APD.
It features differential outputs. A decoupling capacitor on the supply is the only external component required.
