Abstract :
The proposed stacked GaAs DCFL circuit structure can not only equalise a power supply voltage value (3-5 V) used in Si ICs, but can also reduce circuit current (30-50%) due to current sharing within a stacked circuit. A divide by 128/129 and 64/65 prescalar IC has been fabricated to confirm this concept.
