A 1-V transformer-feedback low-noise amplifier for 5-GHz wireless LAN in 0.18-μm CMOS.

A 1-V transformer-feedback low-noise amplifier for 5-GHz wireless LAN in 0.18-μm CMOS.

A low-noise amplifier (LNA) uses low-loss monolithic transformer feedback to neutralize the gate-drain overlap capacitance of a field-effect transistor (FET). A differential implementation in 0.18-μm CMOS technology, designed for 5-GHz wireless local-area networks (LANs), achieves a measured power g...
