INTRODUCTION
Low noise amplifiers (LNAs) play a key role in radio receiver performance. The
success of a receiver’s design is measured in multiple dimensions: receiver sensitivity,
selectivity, and proclivity to reception errors. The RF design engineer works to
optimize
receiver front−end performance with a special focus on the first active device.
1.1 BACKGROUND
.
In more recent years microwave frequencies have also come into widespread use in
communications systems, radar applications; since the propagations of microwave is
effectively along line-of-sight paths.
The growth of wireless service and other telecom application has pushed the
semiconductor industry towards complete system on chip solutions. Wireless system
comprises of a front-end and a back end section. The front end section process analog
signals in the high radio frequency range, while the back end section process analog

and digital signals in the baseband low frequency range.
The radio frequency signal received at the antenna is weak. Therefore an amplifier
with high gain and good noise performance is needed to amplify this signal before it
can be fed to others part of the receiver. Such an amplifier referred to as a low noise
amplifier as shown in Figure 2.1. The first stage of the receiver is typically a low noise
amplifier, whose main function is to provide enough gain to overcome the noise of
subsequent stages (such as mixer). Aside from providing this gain while adding as
little noise as possible, an LNA should accommodate large signals without distortion,
and frequently must also present specific impedance. The general topology of low
noise amplifier can be broken down into the three stages: input matching, amplifier
and the output matching. Low noise amplifier used in various applications like ISM
radio, cellular/PCS handsets, GPS receiver, cordless phone, wireless LAN, wireless
data, satellite communication etc.
In the designing of low noise amplifier, some basic aspect of low noise amplifier
should be kept in mind. Since in low noise amplifier there is trade-off between many
factors i.e. gain, noise figure, stability, power consumption, and nonlinearity etc. Flow

chart of LNA design is shown below that describes the design flow of low noise
amplifier.
The design starts from some basic specification means some standard output values
that is desired for any circuits design these specifications are scattering parameters,
Gain, Noise Figure, Stability, Power, linearity etc. and our aim, tends to achieve these
specified values. Second step in the design is choice of technology so here; CMOS
technology has chosen for this design. Third step is choice the topology, there are
different types of topologies and among them we can use topology depending on our
design. Fourth step is some basic calculation like device width and last if there is
some impedance mismatch so we have to do impedance matching by inserting a filter
network.
LNA amplification is one the most critical stage which affects the entire device
performance. Due to which chief importance is given on its parameters.
1.3.1 SENSITIVITY
The Noise performance of an Low noise amplifier is represented by its noise figure.
The Noise figure is a measurement of the noise performance of a circuit[4][10]. It is
expressed in decibels.
NF = 10 log10 F
F= ( SNRin /SNRout )
Where SNRin and SNRout are the SNRs at the input and output of the amplifier
respectively.
For a cascade system of N stages, the overall noise factor can be obtained in terms of
the noise factor and gain in each stage [4].

Where Fi and Gi are the noise factor and available power gain, respectively, of the i-
th stage and n is the number of the stages.
1.3.4 S-PARAMETERS
There are many ways to represent the behavior of a two-port network. At low
frequency generally Z, Y, H and ABCD parameters are used. S-parameters play an
important role in RF systems. Z-parameter and h-parameter is difficult to use in the
RF-system. Short circuit and open circuit do not behave the same at radio frequencies
because of inductance and capacitance present in a transmission line. S-parameters
are the best way to measure incident and reflected wave power in a two-port network
for RF block.

Fig. 1.6 Two-Port Network []
For the LNA amplifier from design point of view, S11 and S22 denote the input and
output impedances matching. S21 measures the amplification gain of the amplifier
and S12 represents the isolation between input and output ports.

than 1. The stability of a circuit is characterized by the stern stability factor given in
equation (2).
(2)
Δ = S11S22-S21S12
Gain reduction due to the nonlinearity of the transfer function of the amplifying
device is called gain compression. The 1-dB compression point is the one of the
technique to measure gain compression. It is defined as the input signal level for
which the gain of the amplifier drops by 1-dB. By the help of 1-dB compression point
we can calculate the maximum input range of our design.
The Third order intercept point is the measure for nonlinear system. It indicates that
how well a receiver performs with the distortion.
7
Fig. 1.8 Third Order Intercept Point [21]
It’s based on nonlinearity which derived from Taylor series expansion. It relates to
the third order nonlinear term generated to the linear amplified signal. The
intersection of the line of the fundamental first order output and 3rd order
intermodulation product is called the third intercept point.
Now-a-days, power consumption and cost efficiency play a crucial role in the recent
market trends due to this CMOS technology is used to get low power consumption
along with high packing density [4]. CMOS Technology has several advantages such
as
Low cost
Low static power dissipation
Low area
Low noise
High dynamic range.
If we goes to design any analog circuit it is mandatory to known the some design
specification and that specification are standard and our goal is to achieve the desirable
result. CMOS technologies are the best way to design LNA. They provide high speed
8
operation, simplicity in fabrication and also low power consumption [8]. Frequency of
operation depends on different parameters like size of the transistors, impedance
values connected to the transistors, etc. Operating frequency also depends on the filter
connected to the input of the LNA.

to overcome the limitation of each topology [8][16].

1.7 MATCHING NETWORK
The L-match impedance matching circuit is one of the circuits used to match the
impedance between two points, usually a source and a load [2]. The circuit got its
name because the inductor and the capacitor form an L-shape (see schematic below).
Note that the inductor and capacitor can be interchanged depending on the input. If
we need to block direct current, then the capacitor is placed near the source.
Otherwise, the inductor is placed near the source, as seen in the schematic below.
11
1.7.2 Π-TYPE MATCHING NETWORK
π network using LC components, i.e. inductors and capacitors or even resistors and
capacitors can be arranged in ether a π. As suggested by its name, the basic π network
element has one series capacitor, and either side of it there is an inductor connected to
ground. Further network elements can be cascaded if a faster roll off rate is required
The output voltage across the π filter is quite high making it suitable for the most
power related application where high voltage DC filters are required.
In a controlled RF environment, where higher frequency transmission is required, for
example in the GHz band, High-Frequency π filters are easy and flexible to make in
the PCB using just PCB traces. High-frequency Pi filters also provide surge
immunities more than the silicon-based filters. For instance, a silicon chip has a limit
of voltage withstand capacity, whereas π filters made using the passive components
have much more immunity in terms of surges and harsh industrial environments.

[7] Presents a new design methodology for radio frequency (RF) integrated circuits
based on a unified analysis of the scattering parameters of the circuit and
the gm/ID ratio of the involved transistors. Since the scattering parameters of the
circuits are parameterized by means of the physical characteristics of transistors,
designers can optimize transistor size and biasing to comply with the circuit
specifications given in terms of S-parameters . A complete design of a cascode low
noise amplifier (LNA) in MOS 65 nm technology is taken as a case study in order to
validate the approach. In addition, this methodology permits the identification of the
best trade-off between the minimum noise figure and the maximum gain for the LNA
in a very simple way.

ultra low power, low noise figure (NF), high power gain (S 21) low noise amplifier
(LNA) for narrowband (NB) wireless applications is proposed in this paper. The LNA
is designed for 2.4 GHz narrowband (NB) using 90nm CMOS process. It consists of a
resistive feedback Common-Source (CS) inductive degeneration main stage followed
by Common-Gate (CG) cascoded stage [8]. A series inter-stage inductor between the
main stage and the cascoded stage is used to achieve the low NF with desired stability
and power gain. The input return loss (S 1I) is high and output return loss (S 22) is very
low. The proposed LNA circuit provides acceptable values of input 1-dB compression
(P 2 dB) and input third-order intercept point (IIP3) as -32.8 dBm and IIP3 -18.5 dBm
respectively. The LNA consumes low DC power supply [8].

From [10] the low cost, high integration level characteristics of CMOS process make
it attractive for fabricating RF circuits. As the dimension decrease of CMOS
transistors, the performance of CMOS process becomes sufficient for design
voluminous RF. To achieve high voltage gain, two stage cascade topology is used in
the LNA.
In [11] to obtain high gain and low NF, the input impedance match is very
important. For each of the LNA stages, two main structures, common source (CS) and
cascode were considered. Under the same power consumption, the simulated
19
maximum stable power gain of cascode topology is higher than common source (CS)
topology. However, the cascode stage has higher noise figure and reverse isolation
compared to CS topology.
In [12] the broadband and cost-effective LNA with low power consumption,
high gain and low NF are the goals. The RF input is fed to the input matching circuit.
The input and output matching circuits at the input and output respectively are playing
a crucial role in achieving desired parameters. The input and output matching circuits
at input and output will play a vital role in transferring maximum power from input to
network and network to output respectively [12]. The DC supply is fed at the gate and
drain of the transistor to achieve biasing. Noise figure (NF) will play a vital role in the
design as the performance of the entire receiver will depend on the noise figure of
LNA. Once NF is less, it influences on the other blocks to perform well [12].

series inter-stage inductor between the main stage and the cascoded stage is used to
achieve the low NF with desired stability and power gain. The proposed LNA circuit
provides acceptable values of input 1-dB compression (P1dB) and input third-order

[17] presents a wideband CMOS low noise amplifier (LNA) for LTE
application. The LNA design is based on a common source (CS) cascade amplifier
with resistive feedback that is used to do input matching and reduce the noise figure.
Source follower and LC series resonances are used to do output matching. The LNA
achieves the average gain and low noise figure (NF). The LNA is fabricated with
TSMC 0.18-µm CMOS process. The chip size is 0.6mm*0.8mm.
In [18] an ultra-wideband (UWB) low noise amplifier (LNA) for 3.3–13.0 GHz
wireless applications using 90 nm CMOS is proposed in this paper. The proposed
LNA uses an improved common-gate (CG) topology utilizing feedback body biasing
(FBB), which improves noise figure (NF) by a considerable amount. Parallel-series
tuned LC network was used between the common-gate first stage and the cascoded
common-source (CS) stage to achieve the maximum signal flow from CG to CS stage.
Improved CS topology with a series inductor at the drain terminal in the second stage
connected and cascoded CS third stage provides high power gain (S21) and bandwidth
enhancement throughout the complete UWB. A common-drain buffer stage at the
output provides high output reflection coefficient (S22). It achieves an average power
gain and low noise figure with a very high reversion isolation (S12).

From [19] the ultra wide band low noise amplifier (LNA) with three stages based on
CMOS technology. In this LNA, first stage is designed on current reuse topology to
achieve higher gain, while second stage is complementary push pull configuration in
self biased state, which provides high gain and low noise contribution and the third
stage is common source stage. This paper proposes two different designs. These
designs are optimized for different set of parameters, which makes them suitable for
two different categories of applications. The first design with single power source, is
able to achieve average gain with low noise figure. While second design achieves
reduction in the power dissipation and enhances input output impedance matching.
Power dissipation of the second design is 4.1 mW only. Both Ultra Wide Band Low
Noise Amplifiers (UWBLNA) are designed and simulated using TMSC 130 nm
CMOS technology.
