Abstract :
Experimental results on improved GaAs Schottky-barrier coupled Schottky-barrier gate FET logic (SSFL) are reported. A 13-stage ring oscillator, gate dimensions 1.2Ã20 ¿m2, showed tpd=55 ps/gate at P=3.5 mW/gate. Also, a divide-by-two circuit was confirmed, starting normal operation from a single initialisation pulse.
