Abstract
An apparatus for implementing a front end core for a transimpedance amplifier includes an input transimpedance stage that receives an FE core input signal and responsively generates an output transimpedance gain signal. A first output gain stage receives the output transimpedance gain signal and responsively generates an FE core output signal. A phase inverter stage also receives the output transimpedance gain signal and responsively generates an inverted output signal. A second output gain stage then receives the inverted output signal and responsively generates an inverted FE core output signal.

An apparatus for implementing a front end core, comprising:
- an input transimpedance stage that receives an FE core input signal and responsively generates an output transimpedance gain signal;
- a first output gain stage that receives said output transimpedance gain signal and responsively generates an FE core output signal;
- a phase inverter stage that receives said output transimpedance gain signal and responsively generates an inverted output signal;
- and
- a second output gain stage that receives said inverted output signal and responsively generates an inverted FE core output signal.
A method for implementing a front end core by performing the steps of:
- receiving an FE core input signal with an input transimpedance stage that responsively generates an output transimpedance gain signal;
- providing a first output gain stage that receives said output transimpedance gain signal and responsively generates an FE core output signal;
- utilizing a phase inverter stage to receive said output transimpedance gain signal and responsively generate an inverted output signal;
- and
- receiving said inverted output signal with a second output gain stage that responsively generates an inverted FE core output signal.
