    Abstract

    This paper describes Si based three-dimensional MMIC technology. This technology greatly improves the operating frequency of Si MMICs up to the Ku-band and makes them competitive with GaAs MMICs in the higher frequency band. An X-band amplifier and highly integrated single-chip receiver using Si bipolar transistors are demonstrated to highlight the advantages of the Si 3-D MMIC technology. Cost estimation compared with conventional GaAs 2-D MMICs is also discussed.
