Abstract :
A novel millimeter wave frequency doubler MMIC has been developed using resistive series feedback. The MMIC exhibits much better D/U ratio and lower power consumption than those of the conventional one. This paper presents the effect of the feedback resistance with the harmonic balance simulation and also demonstrates the fabricated results.
