Parallel computers, high resolution graphics, and network backbones are among the many applications that could immediately benefit from inexpensive, compact, and easy-to-use giga-bit rate fiber-optic data links. Mobile communications have been also growing rapidly in this decade.

The analytical delay model accounts for different transistor sizes at the two levels. Moreover, high-current effects are also considered in the developed model. Exploiting these two features, the model has been successfully applied in optimizing the design of a variety of two-level series-gated CML and ECL circuits. A comparison with the results obtained by SPICE is presented to verify the applicability of the proposed model.

Simulation results, based on a 0.6-um BiCMOS technology, show an improvement of 64% in the maximum frequency of operation of the BJT-MOS static frequency divider over the BJT scheme operating in the low power regime (< 1 mW). Moreover, the BJT-MOS frequency divider configuration a high input sensitivity throughout the frequency range of operation. In addition, a proposed BiCMOS latched-comparator shows favorable input voltage sensitivity over conventional bipolar design under low-power operation. Secondly, a brief overview of high-performance ECL circuit techniques is covered along with a rough comparison and evaluation of such techniques. A new BiCMOS Active-Pull-Down (APD) ECL circuit is also presented which can achieve 32% improvement in the load driving capability and 43% improvement in the propagation delay over conventional ECL circuit.

It is applicable to high-speed/low-voltage-swing silicon and HBT CML circuits operating at medium or high current densities. The model is based on the bipolar SPICE parameters file, and can be used to estimate the propagation delay time of CML circuits under different operating conditions. The detailed transient analysis accounts for delay components due to each element in the complete SPICE bipolar transistor model. The comparison with SPICE circuit simulation results shows excellent agreement for a wide range of state-of-the-art technologies and circuit parameters. The new model predicts the delay time with less than 5% error in most cases. The influence of the finite slopes (slewing rate) of the input signal and the device dimensions is also investigated. The delay model determines the optimum current io(or load resistorR L ) for a transistor of a certain emitter area when driven by a source of a voltage swing (ΔV) and slew time(t r ).At a specified power dissipation, the delay model is used to optimally size the transistor emitter area for maximum switching speed. The model provides circuit and device guidelines to minimize the propagation in delay time and improve the performance of high-speed CML circuits.

Optimal use of the bipolar and MOS transistors pushes BiCMOS circuits to operate toward the limits of standard BiCMOS technologies. The chapter shows readers that the bipolar transistors in BiCMOS circuits not only serve as conventional output drivers, but also play an important role in circuit design such as for voltage clamps, current amplification, and current differential amplification. A generic 0.8µm complementary BiCMOS technology has been used in the circuit design. The time delays of the proposed ECL/CMOS interface circuits, the dynamic reference voltage CMOS/ECL interface circuits, and the BiCMOS sense amplifier are improved by 20%, 250%, and 60% respectively. An analytical circuit delay model for DRV-CMOS/ECL interface circuits, which fits HSPICE simulation results, is addressed. The error between the model and the circuit simulator is within 4%. All the proposed circuits maintain speed advantage until the supply voltage is scaled down to 3.3 V.

The proposed optical gyroscope is a Ring Laser Gyroscope (RLG), in which the laser cavity is a fiber ring of standard single mode fiber where a semiconductor optical amplifier is used as the gain medium for the ring laser. Taking advantage of the bidirectional nature of the ring laser cavity, two counter-propagating waves are supported in the ring cavity. The two waves are identical in terms of their optical resonance frequency due to the reciprocity of the loop in the static position. A frequency shift is introduced between the two counter-propagating waves when the loop is subjected to an angular rotation, known as the Sagnac effect, and the magnitude of the shift is proportional to the rotation rate. Due to the multi-longitudinal mode nature of the constructed ring laser, the rotation sensor optical system parameters are optimized in a trade-off between the sensitivity and the dynamic range. Special signal processing algorithms are developed to enhance the RLG sensitivity. The performance of the RLG is evaluated using a rate table and the Allan variance of the sensor is extracted. The demonstrated RLG has an excellent linear scale factor with a dynamic range up to 40°/sec and a sensitivity down to 0.2°/sec. The RLG noise specifications as extracted from the Allan variance are a bias instability of 3°/h and an angular random walk of 0.5°/√h.
