Abstract
This paper describes a 60GHz LNA, implemented in a 65nm digital CMOS technology, that has a single-ended input and a differenntial output. At 59.3GHz, the LNA achieves a maximum voltage gain of 22.3dB (power gain of 19.3dB). The input matching is better than -lOdB over the entire 3dB bandwidth from 55.8GHz to 63.5GHz. The LNA has a minimum measured NF of 6.1dB, an output compression point of +2.7dBm and draws 29mA from a 1.2V supply.
