  • Abstract
    Some RADAR systems require 2- or 3-bit ADCS operating at several hundred megahertz to gigahertz sampling rates. Earlier, we have shown that GaAs MESFET comparators can meet both the speed and resolution requirements of such A/Ds. A 3-bit A/D circuit was designed and optimized. ICs were fabricated and successfully operated from dc through gigs-sample per second rate.
