In this paper, a new image-reject low noise amplifier is designed for the 2.4 GHz industrial-scientific-medical (ISM) band. An inter-stage T-structure filter is used in the low noise amplifier design to provide 35-dB image rejection. The goal of this design is to merge the image-reject function into the low noise amplifier.

The CDMA standard operating over the wireless environment along with various other wireless standards places stringent specifications on the RF Front end. Due to possible large interference signal tones at the receiver end along with the carrier, the Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) is expected to provide high linearity, thus preventing the inter-modulation tones created by the interference signal fro...

A low noise amplifier has been designed using a 2SK117 N channel J-FET as the input device in a cascode [1] configuration. Noise measurements on this amplifier yield a low frequency noise current of 0.25 fA/Yfu and a voltage noise of less than 1.2 n V NHz in the 500 Hz to 50 kHz region. Bloyet et al.

A new circuit technique for voltage gain enhancement in CMOS op amp design suitable for low voltage and high speed operation is presented in this paper. A negative conductance is used to cancel the positive output conductance of an amplifier thereby reducing the total equivalent output conductance and increasing the voltage gain of the amplifier.
