Abstract :
The HBT ICs now being developed in Japan will be mainly applied to optical communication systems for broadband digital networks. The authors have already confirmed IC performance of up to 10 Gb/s operation and development for microwave systems is getting underway. Market size is estimated from approximate figures of systems in use.<>
