  • Abstract
    80 GHz operation has been attained for a divide-by-four frequency divider IC fabricated with non-self-aligned InP/InGaAs heterostructure bipolar transistors. To the authors´ knowledge, this is the fastest digital frequency divider IC reported to date. The measured maximum toggle frequency of 80 GHz was the upper limit of the measurement setup
