Abstract :
A self-aligned stacked metal/IDP (SMI) Si bipolar transistor technology that offers low base resistance with shallow impurity profiles is described. This technology makes it possible to obtain ultra-high-speed operation with a 12-ps gate-delay ECL and a 45-GHz dynamic frequency divider. These measured data are the best yet reported for Si technology.
