    Abstract: A silicon interposer may include an on-chip DC blocking capacitor, comprising: a first electrical connection to couple to a supply voltage and to cathodes of a plurality of photodiodes formed in a two-dimensional photodiode array on a first substrate, and a second electrical connection to couple to ground and to ground inputs of a plurality of transimpedance amplifiers on a second substrate; wherein the on-chip DC blocking capacitor is configured to be shared among a plurality of receiver circuits comprising the plurality of photodiodes and the plurality of transimpedance amplifiers; and wherein the silicon interposer comprises a substrate separate from the first substrate and the second substrate.
