Abstract
A 67-GHz 1/4 static frequency divider using a 0.2-/spl mu/m self-aligned selective-epitaxial-growth SiGe HBT was developed. This is among the highest operating frequencies for static dividers reported for any semiconductor technology, yet the power consumption of the divider is 1/5 that of comparable dividers.
