  • Abstract
    This paper outlines the SiGe Technology in term of frequency performances, noise performances and power performances. The conclusions indicate that SiGe HBT technology are very promising for RF and microwave circuits featuring low noise behavior. We finally present the works that have been performed in the field of the improvement of the passive elements performances on silicon substrate
