摘要
The invention relates to a tunable, silicon-based negative-resistance circuit (10, 30) and to an active filter (50) for E-band frequencies (60 to 90 GHz). A base of a transistor (11) is connected to an on-chip inductive transmission line (13) which has a length of approximately a quarter-wavelength at a frequency of 83.5 GHz. The transmission line connects a DC voltage source (14) to the base terminal of the transistor (11) in order to bias the base. Another DC voltage source (15) is connected to the collector of the transistor (11) to bias the transistor. A capacitor (16) operatively bypasses or decouples the voltage source (15) in order to shunt high frequencies or alternating current (AC) signals to ground. The emitter terminal of the transistor (11) is connected to ground through a resistor (18) to limit the collector current (le). The circuit gives rise to improved quality factor of resonators.
