  • Abstract
    An isolated vertical PNP BJT with fT of 28 GHz and f MAX of 26 GHz available as a modular component in a 0.24 μm SiGe BiCMOS technology is described. This paper presents, to the authors´ knowledge, the highest fT ever published for a homojunction PNP device, as well as for a modular PNP in a BiCMOS technology. The VPNP device is fabricated using a low complexity integration scheme and is optimized to complement the high breakdown SiGe NPN HBT
