Abstract:	The third generation of NXP 0.25 μm SiGe BiCMOS technology (QUBiC4Xi) is presented. The NPN has fT/fmax of 216/177 GHz and BVcb0 of 5.2 V. The high-voltage NPN has 12 V BVcb0, and fT/fmax of 80/162 GHz. This is complemented with an improved MIM capacitor with 1THz cutoff frequency and new on-chip isolation structures that demonstrate a record \|S12\| of −60 dB at 10 GHz.
