Zusammenfassung:Summary form only given. Accurately predicting the impact of substrate parasitics in Radio Frequency (RF) design with simulations is one of the major concerns to ensure first silicon success in a System on Chip (SoC) approach. The practical design experience of a 2 GHz RF front-end circuit (designed in a 0.35 /spl mu/m SiGe BiCMOS technology), presented here, illustrates how measurements results can be accurately predicted using a substrate parasitic extractor.
