Abstract :
A wideband amplifier up to 50 GHz has been implemented in a 0.25 mum, 200 GHz ft SiGe BiCMOS technology. Die size was 0.7 times 0.73 mm2. The two-stage design achieves more than 11 dB gain over the whole 20 to 50 GHz band. Gain maximum was 14.2 dB at 47.5 GHz. Noise Figure was lower than 9 dB up to 34 GHz and a current of 30 mA was drawn from a 4 V supply. To the author´s best knowledge this is the highest gain bandwidth product of a monolithic SiGe HBT amplifier ever reported.
