Abstract :
In this article, we study historical trends, inflection points, and the dramatic progress that we have witnessed in wireline communications. The trend charts produced here are a result of surveying approximately 400 papers published in the past three decades. We consider mainly bipolar/BiCMOS and CMOS implementations and refer to the former as “bipolar” for the sake of brevity. We also focus on communication in copper media.
