Abstract
A high-speed time-division 2:1 multiplexer is presented. The IC is fabricated with the authors´ standard 0.2 μm gate-length enhancement and depletion AlGaAs/GaAs HEMT technology (fT=60 and 55 GHz). The circuit can operate up to 45 Gbit.s using single-ended data and clock inputs. The differential output voltage is 1 Vp-p. The power consumption is 500 mW using a single supply voltage of 4.5 V
