SOI technology is now emerging as a promising one for the integration of RF front-end modules, mainly for antenna switches and power amplifiers (PAs). This paper reviews the performances of STMicroelectronics 0.13 mum High Resistivity (HR) SOI CMOS technology and discusses the potentiallity for SOI technology to capture RF front-end business in the near future.
CMOS is today a good candidate for an optimum single chip implementation of both the analog and digital blocks in wireless mobile transceivers. Concerning analog RF blocks, SOI CMOS offer advantages over CMOS bulk, such as reduced source/drain-substrate capacitance and elimination of body effect which are suited for low voltage supply. Furthermore, SOI offers the opportunity to use high resistivity...
