Srinivas Jagarapu, R.K.Kavitha . A 2.4 GHz Low Noise Amplifier In 0.18um CMOS Technology. International Conference on VLSI, Communication & Instrumentation. ICVCI, 10 (None 2011), 10-15.
In this paper, design of a 2.4-GHz low noise amplifier (LNA) intended for use in wireless telemetry telecommand system for satellites is presented. The design has been done in 0.18μm UMC RF CMOS process. The amplifier provides a forward gain (S21) of 16.63 dB with a noise figure of only 1.25dB while drawing 5.4mW from 1.8V supply in single ended configuration. Its differential counterpart also presented which has S21 of 20.34 dB with 1.45 dB noise figure and 4mW power consumption.
