An On-Chip Active Frequency Multiplier-by-Seven (X-band to W-band) for Millimeter-Wave Signal Generation (1122)

This paper discusses an active on-chip multiplier for mm-wave generation, implemented in CMOS 65nm TSMC technology. The multiplying is done within one stage, which is connected via wire bonds to 4 stages PA, reducing the DC power consumption and chip area, achieving 6 dBm at 82 GHz.
