摘要: Silicon offers a new set of possibilities and challenges for RF, microwave, millimeter-wave applications. While the high cutoff frequencies SiGe heterojunction bipolar transistors ever-shrinking feature sizes MOSFETs hold lot promise, design techniques need to be devised deal with realities these technologies, such as low breakdown voltages, lossy substrates, low-Q passives, long interconnect parasitics, high-frequency coupling issues. As an example complete system integration in silicon, this paper presents first fully integrated 24-GHz eight-element phased array receiver 0.18-/spl mu/m silicon-germanium four-element transmitter power amplifiers CMOS. The are capable beam forming can used communication, ranging, positioning, sensing
