Abstract:
An integrated circuit for high speed signal processing, the integrated circuit comprising:a first difference circuit receiving an input signal having a frequency, a second difference circuit coupled to the first difference circuit, each of the first and second difference circuits including a number of transistors, two resistors and two inductive components, each of the two inductive components coupled to one of the two resistors, each of the transistors associated with a value of an Electrically Equivalent Channel Geometry (EECG) controlling an electrical current through the each of the transistors, and each of the transistors, the resistors and the inductive components associated with an Electrically Equivalent Component Parameter (EECP); wherein a ratio for each of the transistors, the resistors and the inductive components is determined to be the EECP of the each of the transistors, the resistors and the inductive components over the EECP of a chosen one of the each of the transistors, the resistors and the inductive components; wherein the ratio for each of the transistors, the resistors and the inductive components is adjusted in reference to the frequency of the input signal so that a first ratio set including the ratio for each of the transistors, the resistors and the inductive components in the first difference circuit is different from a second ratio set including the ratio for each of the transistors, the resistors and the inductive components in the second difference circuit.
