The ease and advantages of allelespecific PCR (AS-PCR) for SNP genotyping, along with the difficulty of assay specificity with certain mismatched DNA primers, have been described in prior studies (1–3). More recently, the use of real-time PCR detection formats has been described for one or both alleles of AS-PCR (4–6). These detection enhancement methods do not overcome the inherent difficultie...

In this work, the design of a novel low noise amplifier (LNA) based on 1μm gate-length InGaAs/InAlAs/InP pHEMT transistors is discussed. Designed for radio astronomy applications, this amplifier exploits a common drain configuration as an input stage and a common source inductive degeneration topology as an output stage. It exhibits a maximum gain of 30 dB within an input 1dB compression point ...

The sensitivity of communications systems is limited by noise. Noise figure for low noise amplifier (LNA) design is highly relevant for LNA’s prima-facie function for adding as low as noise to be added to the desired signal amplification when simulated for system level configuration for varied frequencies ranges. In this paper the noise figure was analyzed as performance parameter for C-band fo...
