The major targets of the project is to develop system-on-chip MMW signal source integrated circuits and a 22-GHz source module, which can be applied to wireless communication systems, and MMW remote sensing radiometers. The frequency range of the signal sources are from 20 to 60 GHz. The research topics for this project contain the development of MMW, analog, digital integrated circuits, and package technology. The integrated circuit components will include voltage-controlled oscillator, multiplier, frequency divider, programming counter, digital-controlled interface circuit, phase detector, charge pumping, filter, switch, phase shifter, mixer, modulator, and broadband amplifier, etc. The project will be carried out following the below procedures: 1) design and simulation the MMW signal source system, 2) establish the design goals of sub-circuit systems, 3) survey the related integrated circuit foundries and the device modeling, 4) establish the passive components and digital logic cell libraries, 5) implement and fabricate the single-circuit chips, 6) measure and verify the chips, 7) develop the source module, 8) integrate the sub-circuit into a single chip, and 9) investigate the experimental results. In this 3-year project, the establishment of the microwave and MMW signal source integrated circuit technology, the innovative MMW MMICs, the related MMW measurement technology, and the system-on-chip signal source will be achieved. Also, we will train the project participants to gain MMW system and MMIC related experiences. In this 3-year project, system planning, MMIC design, chip layout, fabrication and chip evaluation will be exercised. For the first year, we will develop the key components for the MMW frequency synthesizer. The design and layout will also be completed and sent to foundry for fabrication. In the second year, we will integrate all the circuits in a single chip for the K-band and Q-band frequency synthesizers. In the third year, the V-band frequency synthesizer will be developed. 研究期間:9508 ~ 9607 |
