Popis: The full aspects of a 23 GHz BiFET LNA implementation are reported in this work. Integrated in a 0.25 mum BiCMOS technology, the circuit exhibits a 14 dB gain at 22.8 GHz for a 4 mA current consumption under 2.5 V. S11 and S22 parameters are less than -16 dB and -13 dB respectively. A 6.9 dB minimum noise figure is obtained at 22.4 GHz. A large part of the paper also deals with high frequency layout considerations. Indeed useful techniques dedicated to integrated microstrip waveguides and RF interconnections are proposed based on 3D electromagnetic-field simulations.
