Abstract :
The proposed dual-band VCO module with harmonic suppression has been disclosed in this paper. Designing this dual-band VCO module has involved both processes of LTCC and CMOS 0.18-mum for the dual-band filter and the dual-band VCO, respectively. Moreover, this design possesses the features of high integration and small size and realizes the implementation of the multichip module, which can be easily applied to the design of microwave or millimeter-wave integrated circuits.
