Bulk CMOS

Next generation E-band front-ends must be smaller and cheaper to support MIMO arrays & fronthaul.

Explore our CMOS SoC front-ends, which are:

100x smaller,

5x cheaper,

5x lower power than competing solutions.

World's first E-band front-end with integrated diplexer

High power front-end

Low power front-end

The Multifractal Edge

The world's smallest commercially available E-band diplexer implemented in a BT laminate substrate compatible with plastic IC packaging.

• Compatible with: FCCSP, BGA, CSP, SiP

• Small form-factor: 3.8 x 4.5 mm

• High out-of-band suppression: 60 dB+

• Attractive insertion loss: 3.5 dB (incl. IC transitions)

RF PCELLS

RFCELL is a Python-based framework (developed by Multifractal Semi.) for generating RF & mmWave parameterised-cells (PCELL’s) with a specific focus on CMOS technology nodes. GaAs & GaN is also supported.

• Python-based: easy to code and read

• Enables rapid OA RF PCELL development

• Code in “1D wire-frame” mode – RFCELL generates 3D

• Define complex structures in a few lines of code

• DRC clean and process agnostic: tech file

• Shortens development time from months to weeks

• Integrates with Keysight ADS AEL flow (not just PyCell)

• Integrates with Synopsys PyCell & Cadence
