Abstract :
RF performance of 0.18 mum Si processing technology is investigated via designing a single stage microwave amplifier employing the modern design method called ldquoSimplified Real Frequency Technique (SRFT)rdquo. It is demonstrated 0.18 mum Si processing technology can be utilized to design ultra wideband amplifiers over the frequency band of 11.2 GHz to 22.3 GHz.
