Abstract
A 10 Gbit/s decision circuit has been implemented using AlGAs/GaAs HBTs with a carbon doped base region. The circuit has an ambiguity level of 27 mV peak to peak with a 240 degrees phase margin at 10 Gbit/s. The error ratio was less than 10-14 for 100 mV peak to peak input data using a 223-1 PRBS.
