  • Abstract
    A 26-GHz cascode tuned amplifier with a gain of 8.4dB, NF of ~5dB consuming 800muW from a 1.0-V supply has been demonstrated in 130-nm CMOS technology. To increase the gain at given power consumption, the output resistances of cascode amplifier is increased by adding a series inductor at the gate of common-gate stage. The power consumption is more than 5times lower than that of the previously reported CMOS amplifiers operating near 20 GHz
