摘要
Design,realization,and test of a monolithic GaAs 3bit phase digitizing DAC for 3bit digital radio-frequency memory are detailedly described.The 0.5μm fully ion-implanted GaAs MESFET is used to fabricate the circuit in Nanjing Electronic Devices Institute’s (NEDI’s) 75mm standard process line.The high-speed DAC is designed with on-wafer 50Ω I/O impedance matching.Test results show that its work bandwidth is more than 1.5GHz,and phase accuracy is better than 4%.Its code conversion rate can be higher than 12Gbps.
