Silicon Solutions for Today’s 5G Reality and the Foundation of 6G
2:35 pm - 3:00 pm
The mmWave era is upon us and opens up many opportunities for differentiated silicon Integrated Circuit technologies including SiGe BiCMOS, Partially-Depleted (PD) SOI and Fully-Depleted (FD) SOI. In addition to the requisite high transistor ft/fmax needed for operation at mmWave frequencies, each of these technologies has unique attributes and strengths with respect to FEM performance and SOC integration which can be leveraged to provide a solution advantage. In this talk, I will review GLOBALFOUNDRIES SiGe and SOI mmWave technology offerings and provide FEM circuit performance examples for 5G and next generation 6G frequencies.
