Abstract

In this letter, a low‐voltage and low‐power 3.5‐GHz low noise amplifier (LNA) is designed and fabricated using TSMC 0.18‐μm MS/RF complementary metal‐oxide‐semiconductor field effect transistor (CMOS) technology. The complementary current‐reused topology is utilized to achieve low dc power consumption while maintaining reasonable gain performance. Consuming 1.38 mW dc power from 0.6 V supply, the LNA achieves a small signal gain of 16.09 dB and a noise figure of 4.702 dB at 3.5 GHz. Compared with previously reported LNA, the MMIC has excellent FOM performance. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
