  • Abstract
    Recently-developed Si MMICs with high-performance Si devices or on-chip inductors are limited to X-band operation due to low resistivity of the silicon substrate with resulting high transmission loss. This K-band Si MMIC uses three-dimensional (3D) masterslice MMIC technology to overcome these problems.
