摘要
A J-band wideband fourth-harmonically pumped mixer with low conversion loss using 0.13 mu m SiGe BiCMOS technology is reported. Compact equivalent anti-parallel-diode-pair (APDP) with minimized parasitic effect is investigated for conversion loss reduction. Driven by an external power amplifier with no less than 13 dBm LO power from 70 GHz to 85 GHz, the mixer exhibits measured up-conversion loss of 21-26 dB from 280 GHz to 325 GHz. Compared with other J-band mixers, this work achieves the lowest conversion loss with comparable IF bandwidth. The chip occupies 720 mu m x including the testing pads.
