Abstract
This paper presents a Ka-band 4-bit monolithic phase shifter incorporating novel unresonated FET switches which show broadband on/off characteristics up to 40 GHz without inductors. The developed switched-line phase shifter MMIC demonstrated an overall phase deviation of 3.3/spl deg/ rms and an insertion loss deviation of 0.9 dB rms at 34.5 GHz. Over a relatively wide frequency range from 33 to 36 GHz, the phase deviation was less than 7/spl deg/ rms. The chip size of the MMIC is 2.5 mm/spl times/2.2 mm.
