Abstract
RF Multi-function chip (MFC) design is taken up to reduce number of connectors, interconnecting cables and RF devices that cause isolation and RF-matching problem causing un-reliability of the system. The repeatability of the performance of RF module is important for production of a system. Power coupler, mixer and preamplifier stages are designed in one chip. LNA, mixer and power dividers are designed in the second chip. The simulation and fabrication results show a close match.
