Abstract:
Embodiments described herein include an integrated circuit (IC) device. For example, the IC device can include a substrate configured to be coupled to a printed circuit board (PCB), an IC die attached to the substrate, and a waveguide launcher formed on the substrate. The waveguide launcher is electrically coupled to the IC die through the substrate.

Abstract:
A stacked synthesizer for wide local oscillator (LO) generation using a dynamic divider. The phase locked loop can include a plurality of voltage controlled oscillators (VCOs), and a selector that can be configured to select an output of one of the plurality of VCOs. The selected output of one of the plurality of VCOs can be provided to an on-chip dynamic divider and to an off-chip dynamic divider for LO sharing. The dynamic dividers can be configured to generate synthesizer outputs based on a multiplication of the selected output of one of the plurality of VCOs by a factor (1+1/M), where M is a variable number.
