This paper presents the design of a Ku-band CMOS low noise amplifier (LNA) with noise reduction and gain improvement. A transformer feedforward gm-boosting technique is employed in a single-ended common-gate LNA to reduce the noise figure (NF) and improve the gain simultaneously. A single cascode is the second stage of the LNA. Fabricated in 0.18um RF CMOS process, the LNA exhibits a minimum noise...
A growing number of on-chip inductors have been applied in the millimeter-wave IC design. The coupling effects between them have a negative impact on the performance of the circuit and each on-chip inductor. In this paper, a new equivalent-circuit model and a parameter extraction method for multiple on-chip inductors in the millimeter-wave region are proposed. The impacts of coupling effects on every...
