  • Abstract
    This paper describes the design of a high performance 0.25µm CMOS Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) for the Global Positioning System (GPS) operating at 1.57GHz. The LNA features a 1.5dB noise figure. The input ESD-protection is in the order of 3kV HBM and the power consumption is only 6mW.
