Abstract :
A new low power 33 GHz low noise amplifier (LNA) is proposed in a 0.18 μm CMOS technology. It is composed of a single-stage cascode topology consisting of two Common-Gate (CG) amplifiers which provides gain requirements in high frequencies with very low power dissipation. The designed LNA achieves a power gain of 12 dB, IIP3 of -1dBm, and noise figure from 2.96-3.86 dB over the 3 dB bandwidth from 30-36 GHz frequency range. This LNA consumes 7.6 mW from a 1.8-V power supply.
