Abstract
This paper summarizes the technological developments carried out in STMicroelectronics to raise the fT / fMAX of SiGe HBTs up to ~ 300 GHz / 400 GHz. The noise and power performance in the W-band of different SiGe HBT generations are compared along with CML ring oscillators and circuit results up to the D band.
