Abstract :
The COM2 Enhanced Graded Base SiGe modular BiCMOS technology has been developed. It is based on the COM2 digital CMOS process. The technology achieves peak Ft=100 GHz, peak Fmax=101 GHz, peak /spl beta/=186 and BVcex=2.05 V. Ft-BVcex product of 205 and good across wafer uniformity are demonstrated.
