Abstract :
The demonstration of the first MMIC oscillator using novel InP/GaAsSb/InP double heterojunction bipolar transistors (DHBTs) is presented. The oscillator delivered an output power of 3.2 dBm at 34.9GHz with DC to RF conversion efficiency of 10.9%. The corresponding phase noise at 1MHz offset from the carrier frequency was -92dBc/Hz
