Abstract :
A fully monolithic balanced mixer fabricated on a GaAs substrate for operation at W-Band (75 to 110 GHz) is described. The overall size of the mixer chip is 0.075"x 0.075"x0.004". A minimum conversion loss of 4.6 dB has been measured at 91.1 GHz for narrow band operation. For broadband operation, a conversion loss of less than 8 dB has been achieved over an RF range of 73.6 to 83.6 GHz with a corresponding IF range of 8 to 18 GHz.
