Abstract :
The design of millimeter-wave frequency triplers using sub-harmonic mixing and injection-locking is discussed. The design goals are aimed at low power consumption, high harmonic rejection, and bandwidth extension. Several circuit design techniques will be reviewed for consideration of these goals. These frequency triplers are all designed and implemented in CMOS technology.
