Description

This report demonstrates K-band amplifier and mixer using the 3-D Masterslice MMIC technology. The 3-D masterslice MMIC technology effectively isolates passive circuits form the low-resistivity Si substrate. The evaluations used a 0.5-μm Si bipolar transistor with an f_max of 30 GHz. The fabricated amplifier achieved again of 7 dB from 16 GHz to 18 GHz while the mixer achieves a conversion loss of 9 dB from 16.5 GHz to 23 GHz. The performance levels of these MMICs are comparable with those of the circuits employing GaAs MESFET. These results prove that the 3-D Masterslice MMIC technology is very effective in production of Si MMIC in a high frequency range such as up to the K-band.
