Abstract :
The Design of a 8GHz to 32GHz FET frequency quadrupler is described. Typical conversion loss of 9.5dB and low group delay variation of 2 nsec was measured over 2GHz output bandwidth, including the loss and dispersion of the MIC output filter. The design was based on the linear S-parameters of the chip device (including the bond wires), at the required operating frequencies and harmonics bandwidths.
