基于IBM SiGe 0.13 μm BiCMOS工艺,设计了一个工作在超过BVceo的SiGe HBTs class E功放,在产生高的输出功率的同时又保持了比较高的功率附加效率.利用SiGe堆叠E类结构来增加整体的电压摆幅,每个管子都是工作在安全操作区域,同时电压是超过BVceo的,进一步加大了功放的输出功率.设计了级间匹配网络,既保持了输出级比较高的击穿电压,又兼顾了功放的性能.在10 GHz工作频率下,功放的峰值PAE达到了47.4%,同时其输出功率达到21.43 dBm.
Based on IBM SiGe 0.13 μm BiCMOS process
a beyond BVceo Class-E design methodology for SiGe HBT power amplifiers is adopted to generate high output power while maintaining high efficiency. SiGe stacked Class-E architecture is also introduced to increase the overall voltage swing with each series stacked device operating in the safe operating area beyond BVceo while its voltage is beyond BVceo
and then we further increase output power of PA. We designed the interstage matching to not only maintain the high breakdown voltage of output stage
but also achieve good power amplifier performance.When it operate at 10 GHz
the power amplifiers peak power add efficiency can reach 47.4%
and the output power is 21.43 dBm.
