  • Abstract
    A novel HEMT-HBT VCO is presented; it is the first all-active analogue VCO demonstrated using InP HEMT-HBT integrated MMIC technology. The MMIC monolithically integrates an InP common-collector HBT oscillator with a tunable InP HEMT active inductor using selective MBE. The novel HEMT-HBT VCO can provide performance advantages over analogue VCOs such as the multi-vibrator, and has direct implications for high speed clock recovery circuits needed in InP based optoelectronic IC applications
