摘要
In this paper, a W-Band cascode low noise amplifier (LNA) is fabricated in a 130-nm SiGe BiCMOS technology. The inductive emitter degeneration technique and serial inductor noise reduction technique are applied for optimizing noise and gain performance. The chip occupies a core area of 0.08 mm(2). This integrated LNA achieves a measured maximum gain of 24.9 dB at 94 GHz and a simulated minimum noise figure of 4.8 dB at 83 GHz with a 3 dB bandwidth spanning from 83 GHz to 103 GHz, making it a promising candidate for high-performance radiometer frontends in phased arrays for high speed wireless communication and automotive radars systems.
