Hi all;

A search turned up an interesting excerpt from one
Michael Black from this newsgroup, wherein he was
describing designing a circuit using something called
a "Motorola ECLips" chip (to compose the frequency
divider portion of the circuit).

I looked high and low but could find no reference to
this. Anyone know what he's talking about? Date

Thanks in advance,

That would be the "ECL in ps" [ps = picoseconds] series of devices, have

10E
or 100E prefixes. Very high speed -- max clock rates typically 700 MHz to

1
GHz. [Stretching it a little to refer to them as picoseconds, IMHO]
