Abstract

A fundamental up-converter with high linearity is presented, realized as full Gilbert cell (GC) mixer using a 800 nm transferred substrate (TS) InP-DHBT technology. The LO input of the Gilbert cell conducts from 75 to 100 GHz and requires 5 dBm of input power. The GC attains a single sideband (SSB) conversion gain of 10 ± 1 dB within the frequency from 82 to 95 GHz with a saturated output power of -1 dBm at 86 GHz and >5 dB conversion gain between 75 and 100 GHz. The up-converter exhibits 25 GHz of IF bandwidth. The DC power consumption is only 51 mW. © 2020 The Authors. Microwave and Optical Technology Letters published by Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
