Abstract(in English) Aiming,at GHz-clock operation for a 4-Kbit Josephson RAM,GHz- clock operation of a resister coupled Josephson polarity- convertible driver circuit which is a key element for the 4-Kbit Josephson RAM GHz-clock operation has been measured and estimated. The driver circuit must do proper polarity-convertible operation and also supply output current enough to drive memory cells.We have done functional tests for the driver circuit.After several improvements on measurement technics,1.3GHz-clock polarity- convertible operation has been observed.Moreover,computer simulations for the driver circuit have been done to estimate the output current quantitatively.We compared the simulated output current of the driver circuit with a measured memory cell operating region.As a result,it has been shown that reductions of load inductances are indispensable for GHz-clock operation of the 4-Kbit RAM.Moreover,we have found that the circulating current in the driven line is hard to eliminate durimg the 1GHz-clock period. This circulating current causes the RAM to operate improperly.To overcome this problem,reset gates for the driver output current are necessary.
