Block-replicate chip operation at 250 kHz over the temperature range -25°C to 75°C

A block-replicate chip employing asymmetric half-disc propagating elements, pickax replicator, and swap gates was designed and fabricated. One bit per rotating field cycle data rate was accrued for this design through the use of a data merge and one detector. Packaged chips were operated and characterized at 250 kHz over -25 to +75°C temperature range. A composite bias margin of 7 Oe under worst case loading at any given temperature in the temperature range was achieved.
