NUMBER
NAME DESCRIPTION VERSION
TZA3023T SO8 plastic small outline package; 8 leads; body width 3.9 mm SOT96-1
TZA3023U naked die die in waffle pack carriers; die dimensions 0.960 × 1.210 mm −
APPLICATIONS
• Digital fibre optic receiver in short, medium and long
haul optical telecommunications transmission systems
or in high speed data networks
• Wideband RF gain block.
DESCRIPTION
The TZA3023 is a low-noise transimpedance amplifier with
AGC designed to be used in STM4/OC12 fibre optic links.
It amplifies the current generated by a photo detector (PIN
diode or avalanche photodiode) and converts it to a
differential output voltage.
