Abstract :
We propose an 80GHz low noise amplifier capable of linearly handling and canceling a TX spillover up to −20dBm. The cancellation circuit is mainly intended for phase-modulated continuous-wave radar. The circuit is implemented in a 28nm CMOS technology and achieves a gain, NF and iP1dB of 15.2dB, 5.5dB and −15.5dBm respectively, while attenuating the TX spillover by 13.5dB.
