Abstract: According to one embodiment, a broadband transition to joint a via structure and a planar transmission line in a multilayer substrate is formed as an intermediate connection between the signal via pad and the planar transmission line disposed at the same conductor layer. The transverse dimensions of the transition are equal to the via pad diameter at the one end and strip width at another end; the length of the transition can be equal to the characteristic dimensions of the clearance hole in the direction of the planar transmission line or defined as providing the minimal excess inductive reactance in time-domain according to numerical diagrams obtained by three-dimensional full-wave simulations.

Abstract: In an integrated circuit having first (VDD) and second (GND) power terminals, a differential amplifier has a load end connected to the first power terminal to produce-in response to an input signal (IN(1)-IN(2)) an output signal (OUT(1)-OUT(2)) when a common connected end of the amplifier is connected through an n-type constant current transistor (19) to the second power terminal. Connected between the power terminals, a bias resistor (25) and an n-type bias transistor (27) produces a bias circuit output voltage for comparison with a reference voltage (REF) by a voltage comparator (29) for producing a difference voltage which is delivered to a constant current transistor gate electrode and fed back to a bias transistor gate electrode to keep an amplitude of the output signal constant against a temperature variation. It is possible to use as the reference voltage a divided voltage of a source voltage supplied between the power terminals.
