Abstract :
A 60-GHz receiver (RX) chip fabricated in 90 nm CMOS process is reported. The RX chip consists of an LNA, a downconversion mixer and a phase-locked loop synthesizer. The RX chip is capable of generating LO signal from phase-locked synthesizer. Measured power gain and NF of 22 dB and 8.4 dB were obtained at 61.5 GHz. These results indicate the possibility of realization of CMOS single-chip 60-GHz transceiver.
