Abstract
An all-silicon transmitter chipset is presented for narrowband operation in the unlicensed 60 GHz band. The PIC consists of parallel electro-absorption modulators and thermo-optic phase shifters which are driven with both in-phase and quadrature components by the RFIC. A sideband suppression ratio of 25 dB is demonstrated with a full chipset size of 1.1 mm2 and a power consumption of 45 mW. Link experiments are conducted with QAM signals.
