13-bit GaAs serial-to-parallel converter with compact layout for core-chip applications
Design and characterization of a 13 bit serial-to-parallel converter in GaAs technology for smart antennas are presented. The circuit has been realized with NOR-based super-buffered enhancement/depletion logic, and optimized for a compact layout. The serial-to-parallel converter operates properly well above the 20kHz design clock frequency.
