Abstract

The circuitry was constructed by standard commercial 0.35 μm CMOS fabrication processes and consists of a low noise amplifier (LNA) and a low voltage mixer that down-converts S band RF signals into the IF band. The LNA is designed with the consideration of non-quasi-static channel resistance to accomplish the input matching both for gain and noise. A single-ended Gilbert cell mixer is designed with LC tanks in order to achieve a low voltage scheme. Then the inter-stage matching between the LNA and the mixer was accomplished by using a single integrated capacitor to save chip area.
