چکیده

A 2.4-GHz single-stage CMOS low noise amplifier (LNA) structure with ultra low power consumption is proposed. A current reuse technique is used to decrease power dissipation with increasing amplifier transconductance for the LNA. Thus, the same amplifier transconductance for the LNA will be achieved at decreased power dissipation. Also, due to the use of an inverter-type amplifier which has a symmetric structure, the proposed LNA has high linearity. The designed 2.4GHz LNA using 0.25-μm CMOS technology achieves a power gain of 14.7 dB, a noise figure of 2.5 dB, and an IIP3 of 0.5 dBm even at a power consumption of 1.97 mW.

A New Ultra-Wideband Low Noise Amplifier With Continuous Gain Control

This paper presents a new variable gain low noise amplifier (VG-LNA) for ultra-wideband (UWB) applications. The proposed VG-LNA uses a common-source (CS) with a shunt-shunt active feedback as an input stage to realize input matching and partial noise cancelling. An output stage consists of a gain-boosted CS cascode and a gain control circuit that moves the high resonant frequency to higher freq...
