نویسنده
چکیده
This paper shows the design of a broadband low noise amplifier (LNA) for ultra-wideband (UWB) system on 0.18um CMOS process. The proposed LNA uses resistive shunt feedback technique and an inter-stage inductor as an inductive peaking to realize the flat gain throughout the UWB band. The designed UWB LNA has a noise figure lower than 3.5dB, gain above 20dB in the frequency range 3. 1-10.2GHz. It consumes 24mW from a supply voltage of 1.8V.
