Abstract: Circuitry for an optical receiver includes a photodiode for converting an optical signal into a photocurrent having an AC portion Ipd(AC) and a DC portion Ipd(DC). The circuitry includes a circuit element that is connected between the photodiode and the input to a Trans-Impedance Amplifier (TIA). Included in the circuit element is an AC bypass capacitor Cbp and a sensor. In detail, the sensor may be either a current sensor or a voltage sensor. In either case, the sensor establishes a cancellation current for removing the DC portion Ipd(DC) from the photocurrent while the AC bypass capacitor Cbp shunts an AC portion Ipd(AC) to ground. The result is that only an AC portion Ipd(AC) of the optical signal is maintained for input into the TIA.
