В данной работе представлены результаты разработки СВЧ монолитной интегральной схемы шестиразрядного фазовращателя и усилителя мощности диапазона частот 26-30 ГГц. СКО ошибки по фазе и амплитуде фазовращателя составили 1,2 град. и 0,13 дБ соответственно. Максимальная выходная мощность и КПД по добавленной мощности усилителя в точке сжатия Ку на 1 дБ составили 30 дБм и 20 % соответственно. This paper describes the design, layout, and performance of 6-bit phase shifter and power amplifier monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC), 26-30 GHz band. Phase shifter MMIC has RMS phase error of 1.2 deg. And RMD amplitude error is 0.13 dB. MMIC power amplifier has output power capability of 30 dBm at 1 dB gain compression (P-1dB) and PAE of 20 %.

Compound semiconductor technology is rapidly entering the mainstream, and is quickly finding its way into consumer applications where high performance is paramount. But silicon integrated circuit technology is evolving up the performance curve, and CMOS in particular is consuming ever more market share. Nowhere is this contest more clearly evident than in optical communications. Here applications demand performance ranging from a few hundreds of megahertz to multi-gigahertz, from circuits containing anywhere from tens to tens of thousands of devices. This paper reviews the high performance electronics found in optical communication applications from a technology standpoint, illustrating merits and market trends for these competing, yet often complementary IC technologies.
