In this paper, we present the design of an electrostatic discharge (ESD)-protection-free harmonic filter using an improved high-resistivity silicon copper technology for the monolithic integration of active and passive devices. Typical metal-isolator-metal (MIM) capacitors are replaced by inter-digital metal capacitors which provide a high breakdown voltage of up to 800 V. As the machine-mode ESD voltage is lower than 500 V, this filter can operate without ESD protection. In this design, electromagnetic (EM) simulation was used extensively for inductor and filter optimization. The fabricated device has an insertion loss of less than 0.3 dB and 2nd and 3rd harmonic attenuations of more than 30 dB for the WLAN 2.4 GHz frequency band and features a size of 0.75×0.67 mm2.","PeriodicalId":404957,"journal":{"name":"2010 Topical Meeting on Silicon Monolithic Integrated Circuits in RF Systems (SiRF)","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123716422","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Complexity has increased to a point where adding switches and whole signal branches for an additional band is no longer cost effective. Alternative concepts involve ‘converged’ power amplifiers and switching concepts supporting those. Filters and duplexers play a key role in converged architectures and their requirements will be reviewed. Challenges that arise from combining filter functions for different wireless standards will be pointed out. Existing RF-filter technologies are based on high-Q acoustic resonators realized either in Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) or Bulk-Acoustic-Wave (BAW) technology and do not allow changing the frequency characteristics on the fly. Concepts for tunable RF-filters - pursuing the ‘holy grail’ - will be discussed and an overview on the status of this matter will be presented.","PeriodicalId":404957,"journal":{"name":"2010 Topical Meeting on Silicon Monolithic Integrated Circuits in RF Systems (SiRF)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129100134","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The main goal here is to better understand the charging and discharging process involved in high field discharges. This is a necessary study for the reason that the reliability of the structure is directly affected by the underlying charging/discharging processes. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) experiments were carried out using a transmission-line-pulsing technique and compared with a human-body-model testing method. The tests were done on a test-vehicle design of a W-band capacitive RF-MEMS switch. Base on capacitance vs. voltage measurements we highlight the importance of the dielectric material properties and its impact on the device immunity with respect to pulse induced failure mechanisms.","PeriodicalId":404957,"journal":{"name":"2010 Topical Meeting on Silicon Monolithic Integrated Circuits in RF Systems (SiRF)","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121312641","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
