Abstract :
This paper discusses the behavior and design of CMOS current-mode logic (CML) circuits. The advantages of using the CML topology over static CMOS for high-speed digital signals are discussed. Biasing and dynamic behavior of CML circuits are discussed and a design method for optimizing the bandwidth and speed is presented.
