T. Maeda et al., A TECHNIQUE FOR COMPENSATING FOR TEMPERATURE-VARIATION IN LOW-SUPPLY-VOLTAGE GAAS DCFL CIRCUITS, Solid-state electronics, 39(11), 1996, pp. 1543-1547
This paper describes a technique for compensating for the thermal vari
ation in DC characteristics and propagation delay for GaAs DCFL circui
ts. This technique controls a voltage with a minus-one slope of the tr
ansfer curve by applying the substrate voltage. The experimental circu
it demonstrated no degradation in noise margin for the temperature ran
ge from 30 to 130 degrees C and the temperature coefficient of the pro
pagation delay for this circuit was as small as +0.19%/degrees C. Copy
