Abstract

This paper presents a high dynamic range E-band power detector in a 0.13 µm SiGe BiCMOS technology. In this design the Meyer topology using bipolar transistor is adopted and implemented for E-band operation. The measured detector achieves a dynamic range of 35 dB from -25 dBm to +10 dBm. It shows less than 1.6 dB offset in input power detection from 72 GHz to 82 GHz. This power detector consumes 0.6 mW of DC power and the occupied core area is 0.1 mm2
