SiGe HBT wideband amplifier for millimeter wave applications
A wideband amplifier up to 50 GHz has been implemented in a 0.25 μm, 200 GHz f t SiGe BiCMOS technology. Die size was 0.7×0.73 mm. The two-stage design achieves more than 11 dB gain over the whole 20 to 50 GHz band. Gain maximum was 14.2 dB at 47.5 GHz. Noise figure was lower than 9 dB up to 34 GHz and a current of 30 mA was drawn from a 4 V supply. To the author’s best knowledge this is the hi...
