Abstract :
This paper points out a classical optimum LNA structure and shows that its performances on a SOS 0.5 μm digital technology at 10 GHz are poor compared with actual devices. However, while thinking in terms of global reception chain, a new factor of merit is computed and used, showing that those structures can he used in system-on-chip under certain assumptions.
