  • Abstract
    A 2.4 GHz low noise amplifier (LNA), intended for use in a Bluetooth receiver, has been designed in a standard 0.18 μm in CMOS process. The amplifier provides a forward gain (s21) of about 25 dB with a noise figure of sub-2 dB, while consuming only 16 mW power with a 1.5 V supply. It has a good linearity, with the IIP3 equal to -8 dBm around
