Abstract :
This paper proposes a design optimization of staggered amplifier for wide-band applications. The optimization is divided into two simple steps and is independent of circuit topology. It uses the trade-off between power dissipation and area consumption as design constrains. Simulation result using SpectreRF shows that the proposed method gives a good approximation on parameter values.
