A frequency doubler from 27 to 41 GHz fabricated in 0.13-μm SiGe BiCMOS technology with a maximum output power of 8 dBm and a power added efficiency (PAE) of 17.5% at dc power consumption of 35 mW is presented. It consists of a balun, a driver amplifier (DA), a common-base (CB) core and a medium pow...
