Progress in SiGe Technology Toward Fully Integrated mmWave ICs

We described newly developed, enhanced technology and enablement features that lead to state of the art mmwave ICs capable of meeting Gbps speeds required of emerging applications. Die photographs of the Rx and Tx are shown in (Floyd, 2006). The die sizes are 3.4times1.7mm 2 and 4.0times1.6mm 2 , respectively
