چکیده

The performance of radio-frequency integrated circuit (RFIC) blocks such as low noise amplifiers (LNA) or mixers is enhanced by achieving a simultaneous noise and power match at the input. This paper presents a design strategy for achieving this match for circuits built from bipolar transistors with inductive degeneration. The strategy is applied to the design of a 17.35 GHz LNA and a 17.35 GHz direct down-conversion mixer. Simulated results with extracted parasitics show a simultaneous noise and power match for both the LNA and mixer. The results for these two components are compared with those previously published by other authors.

Design and Fabrication of a 9–11 GHz Balanced Low Noise Amplifier Using HJFET

This paper describes the design of an X-band balanced low noise amplifier (LNA) using an available HJFET device. The balanced LNA consists of a pair of electrically similar transistors whose input and output signals are divided or combined by 3 dB two-stage Wilkinson power dividers. The proposed balanced LNA is fabricated and measured. The measured results show that the noise figure is 1.30 dB ...
