摘要
We present a novel, resistor-free approach to dc biasing of RSFQ circuits, known as Energy-efficient RSFQ (ERSFQ). This biasing scheme does not dissipate energy in the static (non-active) mode, and dissipates orders of magnitude less power than traditional RSFQ while operating. Using this approach, we have designed, fabricated and successfully tested at low and high speed a D flip-flop with complementary outputs and several static frequency dividers. We present the method, demonstrate experimental results, and discuss future implementations of ERSFQ.
