was designed in a standard 0.18-μm CMOS process. The new LNA provides significant
improvement in performance and size with less than 13 dB return loss from DC to 17 GHz,
average gain of 8±0.2 dB from DC to 20 GHz, noise figure of 3.4-5 dB from 0.5-19 GHz,
power consumption of 34.2 mW, and 1.05× 0.37 mm 2 chip size including RF pads.
