A GaAs MMIC composed of VCO (voltage controlled oscillator) and mixer for PCS receiver has been developed using 1.mu.m ion implanted GaAs MESFET process. The VCO consists of a colpitts-type oscillator with a dielectric resonator and the circuit configuration of the mixer is a dual-gate type with an asymmetric combination of LO and RF FETs for the improvement of intermodulation characteristics. The common-source self-biasing is used in all circuits including a buffer amplifier and mixer, achieving a single power supply (3V) operation. The total power dissipation is 78mW. The VCO chip shows a phase noise of-99 dBc/Hz at 100KHz offset. The combined VCO/mixer chip shows a flat conversion gain of 2dB, the frequency-tuning factor of 80MHz/volts in the varacter bias ranging from 0.5V to 0.5V , and output IP3 of dBm at varactor bias of 0V. The fabricated chip size is 2.5mm X 1.4mm.

In this paper an MMIC VCO which can be used in a double conversion TV tuner is designed, fabricated and measured. The VCO is designed using the small signal method and fabricated using ETRI GaAs MMIC foundry. The 3x200$\mu$m gate width MESFET with 1$\mu$m gate length is used for an active device and MIM capacitors, spiral inductors, thin film resitors are used as passive elements. The VCO has output power of 10.95dBm at 1955 MHz with 5V bias voltage and 4V tuning voltage. The oscillation frequency change form 1947 MHz to 1964 MHz is obtaine dby an external varactor diode connected to the gate with a tuning voltage from 0 V to 6V.

In this paper, We have designed and fabricated VCO in two way, the common source and common gate circuit for I local oscillator of 60 GHz wireless LAN system. The VCO employed a GaAs MESFET for negative resistance and a varactor diode for frequency tuning. The common gate VCO was measured the phase noise -112 dBc/Hz at the 1 MHz frequency offset. The output power and the second harmonic frequency suppression were 7.81 dBm and -29.3 dBc when tuning voltage was 3V, respectively. The total size of VCO was 28.6$\times$12.14 $\textrm{mm}^2$.
