DESCRIPTION
The SA5223 is a wide-band, low-noise transimpedance amplifier
with differential outputs, incorporating AGC and optimized for signal
recovery in wide-dynamic-range fiber optic receivers, such as
SONET. The part is also suited for many other RF and fiber optic
applications as a general purpose gain block.
The SA5223 is the first AGC amplifier to incorporate internal AGC
loop hold capacitor, therefore, no external components are required.
The internal AGC loop enables the SA5223 to effortlessly handle
bursty data over a range of nA to mA of signal current, positive
direction (sinking) only.

NOTES:
1. Does not include Miller-multiplied capacitance of input device.
2. Noise performance measured differential. Single-ended output noise is higher due to CM noise.
3. PSRR is output referenced and is circuit board layout dependent at higher frequencies. For best performance use a RF filter in VCC line.
4. This implies that the SA5223 gain will change 1dB (10%) in the absence of data for 1ms (i.e., can handle bursty data without degrading Bit
Error Rate (BER) for 100,000 cycles at 100MHz).
