Abstract:A monolithic approach to V-band upconverter development has the advantages of lighter weight and lower cost over conventional hybrid approachs for high volume insertions into transmitter systems. This paper will present the design and performance of a complete monolithic upconverter macrocell using 0.2 pm InGaAs/GaAs pseudomorphic HEMT technology. Individual components, including a 2-10 GHz IF amplifier, a V-band upconverting mixer and a Vband amplifier are also described. The measured results demonstrate a co… Show more
