Adaptable MOS current mode logic for multi-band frequency synthesizers

Abstract

This manuscript has been reproduced from the microfilm master. UMI films the text directly from the original or copy submitted. Thus, some thesis and dissertation copies are in typewriter face, while others may be from any type of computer printer.The quality o f this reproduction is dependent upon the quality o f the copy submitted. Broken or indistinct print, colored or poor quality illustrations and photographs, print bleedthrough, substandard margins, and improper alignment can adversely affect reproduction.In the unlikely event that the author did not send UMI a complete manuscript and there are missing pages, these will be noted. Also, if unauthorized copyright material had to be removed, a note will indicate the deletion. (e.g., maps, drawings, charts) are reproduced by sectioning the original, beginning a t the upper left-hand comer and continuing from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps.

Design and optimization of MOS Current-Mode Logic circuits

“…This makes M2 harder to switch off. To insure against this, the voltage swing must be increased so th a t Vqs2 is lower than V t2-The increased voltage swing is higher than the theoretical value given by[2] Table 4.7: MCML UG operation frequencies for different currents and voltage swings.…”

“…The netlist may be represented by a table th a t consists of 4 columns. Column 1 shows the gate numbers, column 2 lists the first input node numbers, column shows is the second input node numbers and column 4 lists the gate output node numbers 2…”
