    摘要: A comparator uses two resonant tunneling diodes (RTDs) in series with resistors of the latch element of the comparator. By inserting two RTD diodes in series with resistors, the negative resistance of the first and the second RTD diodes reduces the effective RC time constants of the resistors and latch, leading to a faster regeneration during a latching mode of the comparator than achieved with alternative designs.

    摘要: A circuit for generating chaotic signals implemented using heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBTs) and utilized in low probability intercept communications. The HBT chaotic circuit generates truly random analog signals in the GHz range that are non-repeating and deterministic and may not be replicated by preloading a predetermined sequence. A fully differential autonomous chaotic circuit outputs two pairs of chaotic signals to be used in a communication system. As it is impossible to generate identical chaotic signals at the transmitter and receiver sites, the receiver itself sends the chaotic signal to be used for encoding to the transmitter. The receiver includes a chaotic signal generator and digitizes, upconverts, and transmits the generated chaotic signal to the transmitter. The transmitter uses the received chaotic signal to code data to be transmitted. The receiver decodes the transmitted data that is encoded by the chaotic signal to retrieve the transmitted data.

    摘要: A post-distortion method for cascading amplifier stages in a two-stage microwave power amplifier and a dynamic biasing method using back-end processing for correcting nonlinearity in the power amplifier output. A first or driver stage biased in a near-A region with low distortion is cascaded with a second or power stage biased in a near-C region with high efficiency. The amplitude and phase responses of the two stages compensate another to yield a more linear overall gain for the overall power amplifier. The dynamic biasing scheme modulates the source to drain voltages of the transistors used in the amplifier stages based on the harmonics in amplifier output in order to minimize the harmonics and correct non-linearity in the output.

    摘要: A voltage comparator including a quantum tunneling coupled transistor and a method for tuning the voltage comparator. The comparator includes a quantum tunneling coupled transistor coupled to a resistor and is capable of operating above 10 Giga-samples-per-second or a clock rate of 10 GHz. The comparator has a low power consumption of about 1 mW excluding the power required for clock generation and independent from the sampling rate. The threshold or reference voltage of the comparator is controllable by adjusting the pulse height of the clock signal. The comparator has relatively low hysteresis estimated at about 1 mV.
