Design and analysis of DC-to-14-GHz and 22-GHz CMOS cascode.

The designs of two fully integrated CMOS cascode distributed amplifiers (DAs) with 14-GHz and 22-GHz bandwidth are presented. Cascode gain cells and m-derived matching sections are used to enhance the gain and bandwidth performance. These amplifiers demonstrated the highest frequency and widest band...
