Design and testing results of a single power supply wide-band low noise amplifier (LNA) based on low cost 0.5 ?m D-mode pHEMT process are presented. It is shown that the designed cascode LNA has operating frequency range up to 3.5 GHz, power gain above 15 dB, noise figure below 2.2 dB, output linearity above 17 dBm and power consumption less than 325 mW. Potential immunity of the LNA to total ionizing dose and destructive single event effects exceed 300 krad and 60 MeV?cm2/mg respectively.

The proposed work shows an innovative designing in TSMC 130nm CMOS technology. A 2.4 GHz common gate topology low noise amplifier (LNA) using an active inductor to attain the low power consumption and to get the small chip size in layout design. By using this Common gate topology achieves the noise figure of 4dB, Forward gain (S21) parameter of 14.7dB, and the small chip size of 0.26 mm, while 0.8mW power consuming from a 1.1V in 130nm CMOS gives the better noise figure and improved the overall performance.

This paper presents a low power Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) using 0.18µm CMOS technology for ultra wide band (UWB) applications. gm boosting common gate (CG) LNA is designed to improve the noise performance.  For the reduction of on chip area, active inductor is employed at the input side of the designed LNA for input impedance matching. The proposed UWB LNA is designed using Advanced Design System (ADS) at UWB frequency of 3.1-10.6 GHz. Simulation results show that the gain of 10.74+ 0.01 dB, noise figure is 4.855 dB, input return loss <-13 dB and 12.5 mW power consumption.

<p>Balanced amplifier is the structure proposed in this article, it provides better performance. In fact, the single amplifier meets the specification for noise figure and gain but fails to meet the return loss specification due to the large mis-matches on the input &amp; outputs. To overcome this problem one solution is to use balanced amplifier topography. In this paper, a wide-band and highgain microwave balanced amplifier constituted with branch line coupler circuit is proposed. The amplifier is unconditionally stable in the band [9-13] GHz where the gain is about 20dB. The input reflection (S11) and output return loss (S22) at 11 GHz are -33.4dB and -33.5dB respectively.</p>

A novel low-noise amplifier (LNA) suitable for COMPASS receiver applications is designed in SiGe-BiCMOS technology. Inductively degenerated technique and resistive feedback technique are employed to reduce the noise figure. With 1.8V power supply, the measured results achieve 17.23dB power gain and 2.58dB noise figure at 1.561GHz.

In this paper, an ultra-wide band 0.18 μm CMOS common-gate low-noise amplifier (LNA) is presented. Designed in the ultra-wide band frequency range of 3.1–10.6 GHz, it uses a current-reused technique with modified input matching. This approach allowed obtaining a flat broadband gain of 12.75 ± 0.83 dB with an input reflection coefficient less than -5.5 dB, an output reflection coefficient less than -7 dB, and a noise figure less than 3.7 dB. Furthermore, the proposed low-power LNA consumes only 12.14 mW (excluding buffer) from a 1.2 V supply voltage.

The main aim of the paper is designing and implementing a broadband low-noise-amplifier (LNA) based on compensated matching network techniquein order to get high stable gain, low noise figure, low cost and smaller sizefor 3G/4G communication system applications at 2 GHz with bandwidth 600MHz. The Advanced Design System simulates the proposed circuit (ADS).The implementation was done with a class A bias circuit and a low noise transistor BFU 730F with a lower Noise Figure (NFmin) 0.62 dB. Collectorcurrent is measured to be 5.8mA and base current is 19.1μA with a supply voltage of 2.25V. The new design proposed a (NFmin) of 0.62 dB with a 17.8dB high stable amplifier gain. The microstrip lines (MSL) and compensated matching network techniques were used to improve the LNA’s stability and achieve a good result. The LNA board is implemented and assembled on the FR4 botton layer material. The results are virtually non existence equivalent between the simulated and the measured results.
