To this end a bipolar technique using five interconnection layers is applied to an ECL (emitter-coupled-logic) gate array containing 53912 equivalent gates on a 7.8-mm*8.2-mm chip. The gate density is 843 gates/mm/sup 2/ for the chip and 1159 gates/mm for the internal cell region. The density results in short interconnections which reduces line delay, the major factor affecting VLSI performance. An emitter-base self-aligned structure with polysilicon electrodes and resistors (ESPER) combined with U-groove isolation with thick field oxide is employed in the device.

The set consists of two chips, a multiplier-accumulator unit (MAC) and an arithmetic processing unit (APU). The MAC processes image data of different formats, up to 32 by 32 pixels, with a 6- or 12-b resolution, and outputs sums of products in an 18- or 36-b integer format. The APU converts these sums to a single-precision floating-point format (the internal data format) and calculates the correlation coefficient in 1- mu s with floating-point precision using the standard formula.

A four-quadrant mixer is used for the downconversion, and the IF amplifier drives a 50- Omega output. The receiver chip downconverts the low-level GPS signals with conversion gain of about 50 dB while processing high-level digital signals. The total downconversion gain was measured to be greater than 45 dB.
