a novel low noise trans-impedance amplifier is proposed using low cost 0.18 µm cmos technology. a resistive-capacitive feedback is used to extend the bandwidth of the amplifier. as the structure is inductor less, it is suitable for low cost integrated optical interconnects. in this paper improved particle swarm optimization have applied to determine optimal trans-resistance and noise of propose...

a digital look-up table adaptive predistortion technique using a six-port receiver for power amplifier linearization is presented. the system is designed in ka-band for a dvb-s2 satellite link. we use a six-port receiver at the linearizationloop in place of classic heterodyne receivers. the six-port receiver is implemented by the use of passive microwavecircuits and detector diodes. this approa...

Background and Objectives: In this paper, a new design strategy was proposed in order to enhance bandwidth and efficiency of power amplifier. Methods: To realize the introduced design strategy, a power amplifier was designed using TSMC CMOS 0.18um technology for operating in the Ka band, i.e. the frequency range of 26.5-40GHz. To design the power amplifier, first a power divider (PD) with a ver...

INTRODUCTION RAPID advancement of semiconductor integratedcircuit technology has reduced the cost of mobile telecommunication terminals year by year. The global systems for mobile communications (GSM),1) which was standardized mainly by European countries, has enhanced the large scale integration of radio-frequency circuits because mobile telecommunication systems of European countries do not r...

A novel technique for a self-equalized distributed amplifier is presented by showing the analogy between transversal filters and distributed amplifier topologies. The appropriate delay and gain coefficients of amplifier circuit are obtained by a Fourier expansion of the raised cosine spectrum in the frequency range of 0-40GHz.

In this paper a new method for the design of a linear phase distributed amplifier in 180nm CMOS technology is presented. The method is based on analogy between transversal filters and distributed amplifiers topologies. In the proposed method the linearity of the phase at frequency range of 0-50 GHz is obtained by using proper weighting factors for each gain stage in cascaded amplifier topology....
