Apparatus and method for resetting transimpedance amplifier for low-power passive optical network equipment

Provided are an apparatus and a method for resetting a transimpedance amplifier for low-power passive optical network equipment for improving the synchronization performance of an uplink burst signal by resetting the transimpedance amplifier for amplifying a received signal of an optical transceiver at a time point at which a frame of the uplink burst signal ends. There is an effect of improving the burst-mode clock and data reconstruction performance through simple analysis of a bit pattern and thus reducing a guard time or a number of repetitions of preambles by accurately identifying the time point at which the frame of the uplink burst signal ends without using a frame data analysis scheme to reset the transimpedance amplifier.
