  • Abstract
    A 22 GHz low-noise amplifier (LNA) was designed, fabricated in standard 0.12 μm CMOS technology and measured. The LNA chip achieves a maximum gain of 5.5 dB, a noise figure of 10.3 dB and return losses at in-/output of 15 and 10 dB, respectively. The LNA operates at a supply voltage 1.2 V and consumes a DC-power of just 5.4 mW. To the author best knowledge it is the first cascode implementation in CMOS standard process beyond 20 GHz.
