Abstract
This paper presents a complete 0.13 μm SiGe BiCMOS technology fully dedicated to millimeter-wave applications, including a high-speed (230/280 GHz fT/fMAX) and medium voltage SiGe HBT, thick-copper back-end designed for high performance transmission lines and inductors, 2 fF/μm2 high-linearity MIM capacitor and complementary double gate oxide MOS transistors. Details are given on HBT integration, reliability and models as well as on back-end devices models.Keywords
