چکیده

This paper describes a Low-Noise Amplifier (LNA), designed using a 0.25-μm SiGe process, operating in the 4.4– 5 GHz band. A power gain of 12.8 dB at 5 GHz has been achieved with a power consumption of 23.77 mW using a 2 V power supply. The noise figure is 2.2 dB while the input referred 1dB compression point is −6.2 dBm.

A 2.4-GHz LNA: Design, Simulation, and Comparison in 0.2-μm GaAs p-HEMT Process and 0.35-μm SiGe BiCMOS HBT Process

An LNA design and simulation using ED02AH Technology in 0.2-μm GaAs Pseudomorphic HEMT process and 0.35-μm HBT SiGe BiCMOS process are reported as a case of comparison. This work uses an identical circuit topology for both processes which is a 3-volt two stage cascode single-ended topology with a resistive shunt feedback. This LNA is developed for 2.4 GHz ISM band applications. This letter desc...

A Low-Power Tunable SiGe HBT LNA for Wireless LAN Applications

This paper presents the design, implementation and measurements of a BiCMOS integrated tunable Low Noise Amplifier for 5 GHz WLAN applications. It consists of a cascode gain cell, noise and power matched to a 50 Ω input source, and power matched to a 50 Ω load. In order to broaden the available bandwidth, the output matching network is modified by means of a shunt varactor, thus allowing the tu...

An 8 – 18 GHz Wideband SiGe BiCMOS Low Noise Amplifier

In this paper, an 8 – 18 GHz wideband low noise amplifier (LNA) with an active balun fabricated in a 0.13-μm SiGe BiCMOS technology was presented. The LNA achieves 16dB of gain with 1.5 dB variation over the 8GHz to 18 GHz frequency band and a matched input with less than -9 dB of reflection. The minimum noise figure (NF) is 5 dB at 8GHz and increases to 6 dB at 18GHz. The measured IIP3 is -15-...

47-77 GHz and 70-155 GHz LNAs in SiGe BiCMOS Technologies

This paper presents two broadband LNAs covering the frequency ranges from 47 to 77 GHz and 73 to 140 GHz, with peak gain above 20 dB. A proposed Ttype matching topology has been adopted in both circuits to achieve the wide bandwidth. While the V-band LNA achieves the design target, the bandwidth in W/F-band is reduced to 73-140 GHz, with a mid-band gain of 20 dB. The measured NF is below 7.2 dB...
