Abstract:Series resistance associated with inductor is usually ignored in noise optimization for CMOS low noise amplifiers (LNAs). With lowquality on-chip inductor the series resistance, however, degrades input matching and increases noise figure considerably. The LNA design is complicated by the fact that the series resistance varies with inductance in some specific pattern determined by physical implementation for on-chip inductor. This paper presents a novel noise optimization technique for the codesign of LNA and l… Show more
