The development of low noise amplifiers (LNAs) in complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor (CMOS) technology has been at the forefront of modern wireless communication research. CMOS LNAs are integral ...
A design idea for a white-noise generator is realized and revised. Two low-noise amplifiers (LNAs) in cascade amplify the noise produced by a reverse-biased Zener diode operating in junction-breakdown ...
The low-noise, high-gain properties needed for high-performance quantum computing can be realized in a microwave photonic circuit device called a Josephson traveling-wave parametric amplifier (JTWPA), ...
RF-to-baseband front ends consisting of a low-noise amplifier (LNA) cascaded with a mixer downconverting RF signals to baseband have become the epitome of RF devices tested in high-volume ...
Members can download this article in PDF format. In designing an input stage for an analog-to-digital converter (ADC), engineers choose a particular amplifier, assign a target gain, and note the ...
