In this paper, a fully-integrated dual-mode X-band radar transceiver that supports Doppler radar and frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar is proposed. To remove large off-chip DC-blocking capacitors in the Doppler mode, the double-conversion technique and local oscillator (LO) chopping technique are introduced. These techniques remove the DC offset and makes the transceiver more robust to the TX to RX leakage. In addition, they also improve the noise figure (NF) by filtering out 1/f noise of the analog baseband. The FMCW radar is realized using a direct-conversion receiver and a chirp generator. The chirp generator consists of a frequency sweep generator (FSG) and a fractional-N phase-locked loop (PLL). All the analog baseband components including a programable gain amplifiers (PGA) and 1/R<sup>4</sup> range compensation filters are integrated on the chip as well as a bandgap and low-dropout regulators. The operating frequency is from 9.7 to 12.3 GHz, which consumes 216 mW in Doppler mode and 201.6 mW in FMCW mode from a 1.2-V supply voltage. The maximum chirp bandwidth is 750 MHz and the maximum receiver gain is 76 dB with 6-dB gain step. The chip size of the transceiver is 7.68 mm<sup>2</sup> including all the pads.
