Abstract :
The very rapid progress of CMOS developments in the last two decades has extended the potential of MOS into applications traditionally covered by other IC technologies such as silicon bipolar or BICMOS on the one hand or III-V-FETs on the other hand. These applications include data and signal processing as well as RAMs. However, the progress of mainstream CMOS has at the same time pushed bipolar technology to very-high performance as needed for the upcoming applications like wireless and ultimate-speed networks
