Abstract :
In many cases long haul optical fibre transmission systems will require buffer stores to reduce the effects of jitter. This paper describes a set of Gallium Arsenide buffer store components designed and manufactured using BTRL´s standard digital process for operation at data rates of at least 2 Gbit/s.
