Abstract
This paper presents the design and experimental characterization of a D-band down-conversion mixer in 22-nm FDSOI CMOS technology, which exhibits a conversion gain of 1 to 4 dB within a frequency range of115 to 165 GHz, when driven with an LO power of 3.5 dBm. Further, the passive architecture presents a good out-of-band rejection, with a 3-dB bandwidth of 500 MHz within the entire operating frequency range. The downconversion mixer exhibits an input 1-dB compression point of -5.2dBm measured with an LO power of -19dBm at the center frequency of 140 GHz.
