Abstract

A two stage ultra wideband (UWB) amplifier is presented. This amplifier incorporates multiple bandwidth enhancing techniques and is implemented in Austria micro systems (AMS) 0.35 μm CMOS process technology. The amplifier consumes 39.5 mW of power, exhibits a maximum gain of 13 dB, has input and output reflections below −9 and −10 dB, respectively over a −3 dB bandwidth of 4 GHz. The average measured noise figure is 6 dB and 1 dB compression point at 3 GHz is −12 dBm. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract This article presents an ultra‐wideband (UWB). RF receiver that includes a low noise amplifier (LNA) and a single‐balanced mixer (SBM). The LNA uses an RC shunt feedback technique for broadening the bandwidth. Besides, an inductor is used as an interstage match at the cascode LNA that e
