Driver circuit HMC547ALP3E GaAs MMIC SPDT NON-REFLECTIVE SWITCH, DC - 20 GHz

Hi,
I am designing an instrument using HMC547ALP3E GaAs MMIC SPDT NON-REFLECTIVE SWITCH, DC - 20 GHz.
This switch requires a 0 to -5V differential signal for operation. The datasheet for these devices provides a sample
circuit that converts 0to +5V signal to negative range to drive these circuits.



However I am concerned if this driver circuit is capable of working at frequency of 100 MHz. Hence I was trying to build
a driver circuit using ECL gates and a -ive supply rail. However I was concerned about the ECL circuit not working due to small
voltage swing associated with ECL circuits. Any work around solutions one can think off and suggest?

74HCT04 or 74HC04 can rarely work at frequencies greater than about 60MHz.
There is the Advanced Ultra-low Power series (AUP) from Nexperia which claim that works at about 500MHz. But their maximum voltage is 3.8V.

"Working at 100 MHz" is a bit vague kind of specification. You want to differentiate between propagation delay, propagation delay skew, rise/fall time and maximum switching frequency. I would expect that fast 5V logic series like AHC or single/dual gate LVC can work for your application. The input level shift circuit may need a speed-up capacitor.

I also guess that driving "100 MHz" logic won't use 5V IO standard, we don't see yet the full picture.
