  • Abstract
    The switching performance of GaAlAs/GaAs n - p - n Heterojunction Bipolar transistors (HBT) has been investigated for Emitter Coupled Logic (ECL) circuit operation using a CAD model witch has been validated by experimental results. Switching time is discussed in conjunction with layer parameters, design rules, and technological process. The simulation shows the existence of an optimun both for the base thickness and the emitter width. Finally Mesa process give lower switching time than the implanted one.
