AL2320D32 GBaud Dual Channel Limiting Transimpedance Ampliter

The AL2320D is a dual, differential linear transimpedance/variable-gain amplifier (TIA/VGA) for 100G/400G coherent detection receivers for reconfigurable, colorless networks. 

The AL2320D offers two gain control modes: manual gain control and automatic gain control. In manual mode, the gain is controlled from 50Ω to 5KΩ differential via an external control pin.  In automatic mode, the gain is automatically adjusted to deliver a constant output voltage.
