Abstract :
A novel 2:1 selector circuit is described. To achieve high-speed operation, a parallel feedback circuit and inductor peaking were added to a conventional selector circuit. Furthermore, wide bandwidth buffers are carefully designed to cover the operation frequency of this selector circuit. The selector IC, fabricated with 0.1 μm class GaAs MESFETs, operated at up to 44 Gbit/s
