  • Abstract
    Several components for the design of RF transceivers on silicon substrates, developed in a manufacturable analog SiGe bipolar technology without any significant process alterations, are described. Spiral inductors in the range ~0.15-80 nH with typical maximum Q´s of 3-20, MOS and MIM capacitors (1-2 pF) with Q´s up to 80, and varactors with 40% tuning range and Q´s of 20-50 are presented
