Abstract

Language:

This paper presents an overview of the different types of low noise amplifiers (LNAs) at 2.4 GHz frequency and the design of a single-stage inductive degenerated common-source narrow-band low-noise amplifier with a current reuse technique. The CLC with current reuse at the source forms an input-matching configuration in the common source input stage. Because of the CLC circuit used, the LNA achieved impedance matching between the source and the input of the LNA. The current reuse technique used here ensured an enhanced gain. The low noise amplifier simulated in Cadence Virtuoso 180 nm library achieved a gain of 23.06 dB with a noise figure of 0.15 dB. The S11 is -17.17 dB, S22 is -16.4 dB and S12 is at -45.5 dB. The power consumed is 5 mW and has unconditional stability with a stability factor kf of 6.8. Corner analyses validate the stability of the circuit despite variations in process, voltage, and temperature (PVT). The layout of the circuit leaves a footprint of 1.2mm x0.83mm.
