摘要
InP-based HBTs are now available exhibiting cut-off frequency well over 100GHz even at 1mA, In this paper, a 40 Gbit/s IC-oriented InP/InGaAs DHBT technology is presented with maximum Ft of 170GHz and Fmax over 210GHz with BVce0>9V. Specific features of this technology have been developed to increase the design flexibility: high current gain and frequency performances are kept over a large range of collector currents (from 1mA to 100mA) and for various dimensions. This is achieved through size-specific lateral transistor design optimization. These features are required for high-performance 40Gbit/s ICs designed for Optical Transmission Systems, in which careful transistor optimization has to be performed according to its function in the circuit.
