In this work we present the first Low Frequency Noise results obtained on the new 55 nm BiCMOS technology developed by STMicroelectronics. With this improved technology at higher integration level, SiGe:C Heterojunction Bipolar Transistors will address High Speed & High Data Rate communication systems and smart mobility integrated circuits involved in the future fully automated transportation...
A co-integrated Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) with a dipole antenna is designed considering a millimeter-wave dedicated BiCMOS technology. The targeted application is a 94 GHz passive imaging for security applications. The LNA is based on a high-speed SiGe:C 130 nm HBT. The interest of the co-integration on a common silicon substrate is demonstrated through the decrease of insertion losses between the...
A fully integrated 90 GHz-carrier pulsed transmitter with on-chip antenna and >30 GHz measured bandwidth is demonstrated in 0.13 ??m SiGe BiCMOS. By exploring the benefits of hybrid PA/antenna switching and high-performance digital circuitry, the transmitter generates variable-width carrier-modulated pulses with minimum measured pulse width of 35 ps.

This paper describes the integration of high-voltage HBTs in a high-speed SiGe BiCMOS technology. HBTs with BVCEO from 2 V to 5 V featuring an all-implanted collector and fully compatible with a 230-GHz fT BiCMOS technology have been fabricated using only one additional mask.
This paper presents the status of most advanced CMOS and BiCMOS technologies able to address very high-speed optical communications and millimeter-wave applications. The performance of active and passive devices available on bulk Si and high-resistivity SOI is reviewed and HF characteristics of state-of-the-art SiGe HBTs and MOSFETs are compared. The performance of building blocks designed in different...
Today, SiGe HBT and MOSFET cut-off frequencies are higher than 230 GHz (Chevalier et al., 2004) and this increase allows new millimeter wave (MMW) applications on silicon such as 60 GHz WLAN and 77 GHz automotive radar. This study focuses on a wireless communication block with the antenna integration. Functions such as amplifier and filter have been used to perform this block. This is a demonstration...
