CMOS wide band Low Noise Amplifier with current reuse and noise cancellation

Abstract

A wide band Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) in 0.18µm CMOS technology, employing noise cancellation and current reuse, which receives different wireless standards over a frequency range of 900 MHz to 6 GHz, is designed, analyzed and simulated. The LNA provides a power gain of 17.5dB with a power dissipation of 13.7 mW, and a noise figure (NF) of 2.6 to 3.5 dB over a bandwidth of 0.9 GHz to 6 GHz.
