220 GHz, 8.5-dBm Saturated Output Power Wideband Power Amplifier in SiGe BiCMOS 150 150

Abstract:

This letter presents a broadband $G$ -band power amplifier (PA) designed in a 130-nm silicon-germanium (SiGe) bipolar complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor technology. Unlike dual-band matching and staggered tuning techniques to obtain large operation bandwidth (BW), we propose a common broadband amplification stage in this work for its flexibility. In each stage, inductive …
