High Frequency Analog LSI Development.

Abstract

This report documents all design and related analysis efforts undertaken in the second year of a three-year program aimed toward utilizing OAT fabrication technology to develop building block circuits which satisfy the system requirements of communication networks operating through L-band signal frequencies. The designs of a wideband RF amplifier, narrowband IF amplifier, four-quadrant analog multiplier, wideband operational amplifier, and high frequency voltage controlled oscillator are discussed at considerable depth, and the available experimental characterizations of these units are documented. As a prelude to circuit design discussions, the theories of bandwidth estimation, RF power flow, stability, and interstage coupling are rigorously developed and explained. These theories form the foundation upon which the circuit design methodology is structured. (Author)
