A 77-GHz automotive radar transmitter is presented. The transmitter is based on a 19.25-GHz Colpitts voltage controlled oscillator, that feeds two cascaded frequency doubler stages. In a following medium power amplifier (MPA) the signal recovers after frequency transformation. Finally a power amplifier (PA) adds 6 dB to the power level after the MPA. In addition, an emitter follower stage connected...
An integrated 19-GHz Colpitts oscillator for a 77-GHz FMCW automotive radar frontend application is presented. The Colpitts oscillator has been realized in a fully differential circuit architecture. The VCO's 19 GHz output signal is buffered with an emitter follower stage and used as a LO signal source for a 77-GHz radar transceiver architecture. The LO frequency is quadrupled and amplified to drive...
A fully integrated 4-channel automotive radar transceiver chip, integrated in a 200-GHz SiGe:C production technology, is presented. With a typical transmit power of 2 x +7 dBm at the antenna ports and all functions active, the chip draws a current of about 600 mA from a single 5.5 V supply. The design permits FMCW operation in the 76 to 77 GHz band at chip-backside temperatures from -40degC to +125degC.
