Abstract :
This paper presents a 10 Ghz bandwidth 50 Omega input matching monolithic LNA, designed by implementing the noise cancellation technique (NCT) [2] for a CMOS transistor on single input amplifier architecture. The noise figure (NF) performance of the new proposed amplifier is as low as 2.3 dB@2 Ghz. The gain of the amplifier is higher than 20 dB@10 Ghz, the IP3 is 5 dBm@6 Ghz and its power consumption is smaller than 20 mW at 1.20 V voltage supply.
