Abstract:
A method for fabricating an integrated circuit comprising the steps of:forming a plurality of transmission lines having a low characteristic impedance, each of said transmission lines including a first end and a second end; forming a driver coupled to the first end of one of said transmission lines; forming a current sense amplifier coupled to the second end of said one transmission line, said current sense amplifier having an input impedance corresponding to the characteristic impedance of said one transmission line; and forming a plurality of components connected at spaced intervals to said one transmission line between said first and second ends to change an apparent length of said one of said transmission lines to match with at least one other of said plurality of transmission lines, said components being selected from the group consisting of capacitive elements, inductive elements and a combination of capacitive and inductive elements.
