摘要
A low-power switched gain low noise amplifier (LNA) is presented for ultrawideband (UWB) wireless applications. The proposed topology is co-designed with transmit/receive (T/R) switch for Mode 1 OFDM applications and the integrated circuit is implemented in a 0.13 mu m CAMOS technology. The measurement results show a gain-switch of 10dB where s21 in the frequency band of interest is 17.4-19.2dB at high gain mode (HG) and 8.8-9.1dB at low gain mode (LG). The s11 is lower than -17dB for both modes. The circuit gives noise figures of 3.3-3.9dB at HG and 4.8-7.9dB at LC. The input 1dB compression points (P1dB) are -28dBm at HG and -20dBm at LC. Biased by an internal gm bias circuit, the power consumptions of the core circuit are 5.7mW and 5.2mW for HG and LG respectively.
