A Ka-band quadrature quintupler fabricated in the 90 nm CMOS process is demonstrated. The multiplier consists of quadrature regenerative frequency dividers, single-balanced mixers, triplers, and buffers. The quadrature regenerative frequency divider and mixer produce a 5fo/3 (fo, the input signal of the quintupler) signal and the tripler output produces a 5fo signal. This quintupler has a wide frequency range of 22.5–28.5 GHz, high input and output powers of 3.9 and 1.8–2.3 dBm, respectively, and a power consumption of 14.8 mW. The size of the multiplier is 0.99 mm2. This quintupler can be used in Ka-band wireless sensors.
