摘要
This paper presents a Ku-band voltage-con trolled oscillator with extremely low power consumption based on an InP-based RTD/HBT technology. In order to reduce the power consumption, an InP-based RTD is used for microwave power generation, which shows the negative resistance characteristics at a low voltage. The VCO exhibits an oscillation frequency of 14.3 GHz at a bias current or 2.1 mA and a supply voltage of 0.34 V with the corresponding DC power of 0.71 mW in the VCO core. In addition, a low phase noise of A 18 dBc/Hz at 1 MHz offset has been obtained from the fabricated MMIC VCO.
