摘要:

为获得高频信号源,采用0.13 μm 的锗硅双极结型晶体管和互补金属氧化物半导体工艺设计并实现了一种高效率和高基频抑制的52 GHz平衡式二倍频器。二倍频器采用了差分共射-共基结构,且在输入端采用了一个单端转差分的巴伦,并利用二次谐波反射器减小反馈到输入的二次谐波对输出信号的影响,有效地提高了二次谐波输出功率。探针台测试结果表明,巴伦在2026.5 GHz范围内的插入损耗约为1 dB,且当二倍频器输入26 GHz信号,功率为0.5 dBm时,输出的52 GHz信号功率达到2.3 dBm,相应的基频抑制达到34 dBc,直流功耗约为21.8 mW,相应的功率附加效率为2.5%。这种二倍频器在达到高输出功率和高基波抑制的同时保持了较低的功耗。

Abstract:

In order to generate a high frequency signal source, a 52 GHz balanced frequency doubler with high efficiency and good fundamental rejection is designed. The doubler is fabricated in a 0.13 μm SiGe Bipolar junction transistor by the Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (BiCMOS) technology. A balun is used to split the single-ended signal into differential signals. A second harmonic reflector reduces the effect of the feedback signal of the second harmonic on the output signal and improves the output power. The measurement results based on the probe station demonstrate that the insertion loss of the balun is about 1 dB from 20 GHz to 26.5 GHz. With an input power of 0.5 dBm, the doubler delivers an output second harmonic power of 2.3 dBm with 34 dBc of fundamental rejection. The doubler consumes a dc power of about 21.8 mW with the corresponding power-added efficiency (PAE) of 2.5%.

Key words: frequency doubler, SiGe, heterojunction bipolar transistor, second harmonic reflector
