摘要
High performance power SiGe/Si HBTs at X-band (8.4 GHz), Ku-band (12.6GHz) and K-band (18GHz) have been demonstrated. Under continuous wave operation, a single 20-finger Si/Si0.75Ge0.25/Si (emitter area of 1200 mum(2) HBT, biased in class AB, delivers 28.5dBm (700 mW) of RF output power at X-band, 25.5dBm (350mW) at Ku-band and 22.5dBm (180mW) at K-band. These represent the state-of-the-art power performance of SiGe-based HBTs at frequencies above X-band. An in-depth analysis of the power performance of HBTs with different geometry and configuration is also presented, which will eventually serve as a design guide for SiGe/Si power HBTs at different frequency of operation.
