Abstract
Measured data are presented on performance of current mode logic (CML) ring oscillators at liquid nitrogen temperature. The devices and circuits were fabricated using double-poly bipolar technology. The experimental data are explained using the hybrid-π model. CML ring oscillators were fabricated using 1.0 μm design rules. The measured delay at LN2 increased by a factor of 2.3 compared to that at room temperature. The increase in delay is explained by the temperature behavior of the base and load resistors
