Abstract
An on-chip power sensor and a millimeter-wave transmitter on a chip including the on-chip power sensor are described. The millimeter-wave transmitter can also include a coupler disposed on a transmit path, the coupler being configured to receive a transmit signal and to provide the transmit signal to an antenna. The on-chip power sensor can be configured to receive a coupled portion of the transmit signal from the coupler, and measure a transmit power of the transmit signal based on the coupled portion of the transmit signal.
