Abstract

A three‐stage 30‐GHz low noise amplifier (LNA) was designed and fabricated in a standard 0.18‐μm CMOS technology. The LNA has demonstrated a 10‐dB gain and a minimum noise figure of 5.2 dB at 30 GHz. The achieved input 1‐dB compression point (IP~1 dB~) and third order intercept point (IP3) are −7 and +2.5 dBm, with total current of 16 mA from a 1.5‐V power supply. To the author's knowledge, the LNA shows the best overall performances ever reported in standard 0.18‐μm CMOS process. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
