A SiGe transmitter chipset for CATV video-on-demand systems

A 3-chip, 6.5W CATV transmitter for video-on-demand applications is implemented in a 0.5/spl mu/m SiGe BiCMOS process. A 38dBmV IF input at 44MHz or 36.125MHz is upconverted to an output between 50 and 860MHz at a level adjustable between 41 and 58dBmV in
