Abstract :
This paper describes properties of monolithic W-band IMPATT oscillator, their integration into SIMMWICs and proves their basics functionality as mW power sources for simple cost effective and flexible mm-wave systems. In this oscillator system monolithic integrated IMPATT diodes are combined with coplanar waveguide resonator on unthinned silicon wafers for mm-wave operation (around 90 GHz).
