  • Abstract
    A high-speed GaAs MESFET sequential sampling gate employing a NEC710 as a resistive switch is designed and the step response is tested. The 10-90% transition duration of the intrinsic step response is 20 ps. Experimental results are analysed using time-domain simulation of the circuit, including propagation effects and measurement equipment responses.
