Abstract
In this paper a study of the performance of SiGe QUBiC4G technology to be used on 30GHz LNAs is presented. The best HBT for this purpose is selected. For this HBT and IC bias current leading to NFmin, simple LNAs were designed: common emitter with resistive and inductive bias; and cascode. The results show the possibility of using the QUBiC4G technology, optimised for low microwave applications (few GHz), at the low millimeter wave band - NF 5dB, G 5dB per HBT.
