Standard multifunction MMIC chip for phase locked microwave oscillators

摘要

This paper presents the design and realization of a new fully integrated multifunction circuit which is of great interest for all applications that need low cost phase locked microwave oscillators. The realization described here is in X band, but the design can be easily extrapolated up to millimeter frequencies. Experimental results are presented about all the MMIC's functions. A low cost package, also extrapolable up to higher frequencies is described.
