  • Abstract
    A monolithically integrated low noise amplifier (LNA) for PCS applications in the frequency range of 1.6 to 2 GHz has been designed. Using a 0.9 V single supply voltage, it achieves a noise figure of less than 3 dB with a gain of 10 dB. The chip size is 1 mm2 with full on chip matching
