Analysis and Design of the 0.13- $\mu\hbox {m}$ CMOS Shunt–Series Series–Shunt Dual-Feedback Amplifier

This paper demonstrates the design methodology of the shunt-series series-shunt dual-feedback Meyer wideband amplifier. The small-signal S-parameters are obtained for the first time using the pole-and-zero analysis, thus giving the RF designers a detailed insight into the Meyer amplifier. A 10-GHz wideband amplifier is demonstrated in this paper, using 0.13-mum CMOS technology to verify our design theory. The experimental results of the S-parameters highly agree with our theory.
