Abstract :
A 2.5 Gbit/s 5.6 Kgate LSI for the STM-64 regenerator-section terminator was fabricated using bipolar standard-cell technology for gigabit per second operation. The technology features high performance cell design and LSI layout design based on an accurate timing analysis. The LSI achieves twice the bit rate and half the power dissipation of reported LSIs
