Abstract

This paper gives an overview of the Millimeter Wave Project to realize the indoor and the outdoor systems over Gbps by developing CMOS RF and Baseband SoCs. A 60 GHz direct conversion transceiver was developed using 65 nm CMOS and demonstrates 7 Gbps using 16 QAM. A quadrature VCO attained very low phase noise of -94 dBc/Hz @1 MHz. For the outdoor system (1 km), a baseband mixed signal SoC using 90 nm CMOS was developed and demonstrates 600 Mbps with 16 QAM in 3 8GHz (BW: 260 MHz) band.
