Ka-Band SATCOM Receiver IC
17.5GHz to 21.5GHz
F6102 Advance
Short-Form Datasheet
Description
Features
The F6102 is an 8-element receiver silicon IC designed using a
SiGe BiCMOS process for Ka-Band SATCOM phased array
applications. The core IC has 6-bit phase control coupled with 30dB
gain control on each channel to achieve fine beam steering and
gain compensation between radiating elements. The device has
16dB nominal electric gain and -30dBm IP1dB. The core chip
achieves an RMS phase error of 3° and RMS gain error of 0.3dB
over the frequency of operation. The typical total power con-
sumption is 0.32W (40mW per channel).
