Abstract :
Summary form only given, as follows. A new systematic CAD procedure for designing multistage broadband low-noise amplifiers (LNAs) is presented based on “region” and “visual” design techniques. This procedure allows the matching/feedback/compensation network synthesis directly from amplifier stage requirements. As an example, the design of X-band two-stage 0.15 µm pHEMT MMIC LNA is demonstrated.
