A Millimeter-Wave Reconfigurable On-Chip Coupler with Tunable Power-Dividing Ratios

This paper presents a millimeter-wave on-chip tunable coupler with tunable power dividing ratios and constant phase responses. Composed by two coupled-lines, two capacitors and two series-connected varactors, the proposed tunable coupler offers wideband frequency responses. Theoretical analysis for wideband operation is provided with design parameters. For demonstration, a millimeter-wave tunable coupler is implemented in a standard 0.13-μm SiGe (Bi) CMOS technology and measured through an on-wafer probing system. From 25 to 31 GHz, the proposed tunable coupler shows a power-dividing ratio tuned from 0 to 5 dB, while maintaining an in-band return loss of better than 10 dB and an output isolation of 20 dB, simultaneously. The phase imbalance is better than ±4° with a measured insertion loss of 1.6 dB across the entire tuning range.
