Abstract
A SiGe bipolar technology for automotive radar applications around 77 GHz has been developed. A cut-off frequency of 200 GHz, a maximum oscillation frequency of 275 GHz, and a gate delay of 3.5 ps have been obtained. First key building blocks for 77 GHz systems like VCOs and mixers have been realized with this technology.
