概要

論文の詳細を見る
This paper reviews the advantages of the silicon three-dimensional MMIC technology such as low loss transmission lines, high integration level, and high Q-factor on-chip inductors. Coupled to the masterslice concept, this technology also offers simple design procedure, short turn-around-time, low cost, and potential integration with LSI circuits. A K-band amplifier and an up-converter demonstrate the high frequency operation and low-power consumption benefits of the Si 3-D MMIC technology. A C-band Si-bipolar single-chip transceiver is proposed to illustrate the high integration level offered by the masterslice concept. Finally, the recent advances we achieved toward high Q-factor on-chip inductors provide the design of the S-band lo noise amplifier presented in this paper.
