Abstract
This paper presents the design of a fully-integrated ultra-wideband low-noise amplifier using a commercial 0.18mum CMOS technology. The adopted design techniques include feedback, network synthesis, and gain compensation. The measured noise figure is lower than 3.8 dB from 3.1 to 7.5 GHz. Operated on a 1.8V supply, the LNA delivers 19dB power gain and dissipates 32mW of power. The total chip size of the CMOS UWB LNA is 1.37mm times 1.19mm
