An advanced design procedure for MMIC GaAs direct‐coupled transimpedance amplifier for gigabit/second‐rate optical communication systems is presented. A transimpedance gain of 67 dBω up to 2.5 GHz has been demonstrated. A complete set of simulated and measured results are presented to confirm the effectiveness of the design approach. The design and the realization have been performed within the framework of ESPRIT Project No. 5018 COSMIC. © 1993 John Wiley & sons, Inc.
