Abstract

A transceiver printed circuit board (PCB) includes an integrated circuit (IC) with at least two different functionality, a photodiode and a laser. The IC has a first side, a second side opposite to the first side, a third side connecting the first side and the second side, and a fourth side opposite to the third side. The photodiode and the laser are both located in a first space beside the first side. The functionality of a transimpedance amplifier, a laser driver, and a clock and data recovery is integrated into the IC.
