The impact of HBT layout on the circuit performance and trade-off between thermal resistance and fT is also investigated. fT doubler circuit can be used as a single transistor in several circuit applications like A/D converters and broadband circuits where higher performance is desired.","PeriodicalId":423269,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE Bipolar/BiCMOS Circuits and Technology Meeting (BCTM)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133165102","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 low band and middle band frequency signal is generated from the QVCO while the high band signal is obtained from a gilbert mixer. The tuning-range enhancement technique allows a three band frequency generation in the range from 2.4GHz to 8.4GHz without penalizing its phase noise. The VCO monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) is implemented in a 0.18 μm SiGe BiCMOS technology with 1.8 mm2 area. The measured frequency range is 15.4% for the three bands centered at 2.5GHz, 5GHz, and 7.5GHz. The measured phase noise are -124.4dBc/Hz, -119.1dBc/Hz and -108.8dBc/Hz at 1 MHz offset for the low, middle, high band signals, separately. The measurement results demonstrate that proposed frequency generation technique can achieve wide tuning range capability as well as the low phase noise with very compact circuit.","PeriodicalId":423269,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE Bipolar/BiCMOS Circuits and Technology Meeting (BCTM)","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134210158","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 key noise mechanisms in HBTs are summarized to provide a framework through which the noise limitations of the devices can be understood. Process related details and transport physics of each class of device are then compared and contrasted with a focus on details relevant to the broadband noise performance. Fundamental noise performance limitations are presented for exemplary InP/InGaAs/InP BiCMOS DHBTs and SiGe HBTs. The state-of-the-art for SiGe and CS HBTs operating in the 1-300 GHz frequency range is reviewed and interpreted in the context of fundamental performance limitations.
