Expert system issues related to monolithic microwave integrated circuit design

Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques are applied to develop a framework for the design and layout of MMIC circuits. This framework addresses key aspects of the design process, from circuit specification and initial design decisions through to final layout and preparation of the circuit for fabrication. A number of knowledge-based systems are incorporated into the framework to assist in speci...

A 155=GHz Monolithic Low Noise Amplifier

This paper presents the design, fabrication and performance of a three-stage 155GHz monolithic low noise amplifier (LNA) using 0.1 -pm pseudomorphic (PM) InAIAs/InGaAs/InP HEMT technology. This amplifier exhibits a measured small signal gain of 12 dB at 155 GHz, and more than 10 dB gain from 151 to 156 GHz. When this amplifier is biased for low noise figure, a noise figure of 5.1 dB with associ...

Micromechanical Photonic Integrated Circuits

The ability to integrate micro-optical elements with movable structures and microactuators has opened up many new opportunities for optical and optoelectronic systemsI2. It allows us to manipulate optical beams more effectively than conventional methods, and is scalable to large optical systems. Optical MEMS (MicroElectroMechanical Systems) have applications in display, sensing, and optical dat...
