  • Abstract
    A 2:1 time division multiplexer (MUX) has been designed and built with dual-gate GaAs MESFETs in thick film circuits. Pulses of 10.6 Gb/s NRZ (nonreturn-to-zero) have been obtained. The voltage swing of MUX at 10 Gb/s is 1 V, the largest reported to data. The operation of MUX has been simulated by using mwSPICE and good agreement between the measured and simulated switching waveforms has been obtained.<>
