  • Abstract
    RZ current switches are added to a current steering DAC for high-frequency wideband applications to achieve 800MHz bandwidth at 1st and 2nd Nyquist band without the need for a reverse sinc equalization filter. Implemented in a GaAs HBT process with 4.5 μm2 minimum emitter area, the DAC dissipates 1.2W at -5V with a 1.6GHz clock and 0dBm typical output power.
