Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this master's project is to design a low noise amplifier with cascading different amplifier stages together for specific design conditions. The aim of this project is to design a three stage low noise amplifier using minimum noise amplifier and maximum gain amplifier design. The final cascaded design should be able to satisfy the desired specifications using specific transistor at required frequency. The goal is to design a LNA which has maximum gain with low noise figure. The process begins with selecting a proper transistor, DC biasing of the transistor, checking stability conditions, gain, designing matching network, and calculating noise figure for every stage of the cascaded design. As the LNA is designed, the results obtained by hand calculations are certified by MATLAB simulation, Smith Chart and by simulation using Agilent ADS software.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first standalone book that combines research into low-noise amplifiers (LNAs) with research into millimeter-wave circuits. In compiling this book, the authors have set two research objectives. The first is to bring together the research context behind millimeter-wave circuit operation and the theory of low-noise amplification. The second is to present new research in this multi-disciplinary field by dividing the common LNA configurations and typical specifications into subsystems, which are then optimized separately to suggest improvements in the current state-of-the-art designs. To achieve the second research objective, the state-of-the-art LNA configurations are discussed and the weaknesses of state-of the art configurations are considered, thus identifying research gaps. Such research gaps, among others, point towards optimization – at a systems and microelectronics level. Optimization topics include the influence of short wavelength, layout and crosstalk on LNA performance. Advanced fabrication technologies used to decrease the parasitics of passive and active devices are also explored, together with packaging technologies such as silicon-on-chip and silicon-on-package, which are proposed as alternatives to traditional IC implementation. This research outcome builds through innovation. Innovative ideas for LNA construction are explored, and alternative design methodologies are deployed, including LNA/antenna co-design or utilization of the electronic design automation in the research flow. The book also offers the authors’ proposal for streamlined automated LNA design flow, which focuses on LNA as a collection of highly optimized subsystems.

Download or read book Design of a Three Stage Microwave Low Noise Amplifier at 16 GHz written by Pratik Patil and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Ku band multistage low noise amplifier also known as LNA was designed to operate at 16 GHz used mostly in radar applications. The LNA is required to provide a gain greater than 20dB and an overall noise figure of less than 2dB. NEC transistor NE321000, a heterojunction FET was selected for this design because it offered excellent gain and noise figure parameters at our required frequency. Simulations showed that the LNA provides a gain of 26 dB over a 10% bandwidth and a noise figure of 1.1dB. Thus, the LNA design met and exceeded our design requirements. It was determined by analysis that the first stage had to be designed as minimum noise and the other two stages as maximum gain to meet our overall noise and gain requirements. The input matching network, the output matching network and inter-stage matching networks were designed afterwards. The circuit schematic, layout and circuit test bench simulations were done using Agilent ADS. Stability, noise figure calculations and gain calculation were done manually as well as using ADS.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Design of a Broadband Amplifier At 13GHz to 26 GHz By Ishan Patel Master of Science in Electrical Engineering In this project an amplifier is designed to obtain a flat gain response over an octave of Ka-K band frequency. One octave of frequency range is 13 GHz to 26 GHz. So, the center frequency is chosen to be 20 GHz, and two maximum gain amplifiers are designed where both are connected in a balanced configuration. Amplifiers are designed by using transistor MGF4964L by MITSUBISHI ELECTRIC which is a Low Noise GaAs HEMT (High Electron Mobility Transistor). To connect the two amplifiers in a balanced configuration Lange couplers are used as power divider at the input and as power combiner at the output. Microstrip lines are designed by using RT/duroid® 6010 LM by ROGERS CORPORATION, which has a high dielectric constant of 10.2 and suitable for high frequency applications. Verification of a circuit is done by using AWR microwave office and MATLAB software.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT THREE-STAGE LOW NOISE AMPLIFIER at 16GHz By Prashanth Hara Master of Science in Electrical Engineering The purpose of this project is to design a three stage LNA in which all the stages are identical in nature. The transistor used for the design is MGF 4937 - AM operating at a frequency of 16GHz with the goal of achieving a total gain over 30dB and a noise figure less than 2dB. The basic steps involved in the design are: 1) Choosing the appropriate transistor, 2) Conduting the stability test of the transistor, 3) Calculating the gain and noise figure of the amplifier and 4) Designing the input matching network , output matching network and the M-prime network. First the smith chart is used for developing the design and then the design is verified using Microwave Office. The hand calculations are also verified using Matlab and RF/MW design software. The final three-stage low noise amplifier design was simulated using Microwave Office software obtaining a gain of 33dB and a noise figure of 1.6dB.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis describes a systematic design methodology for millimeter-wave, low noise amplifiers (LNAs). It focuses on the inductively--leaded SiGe HBT cascodc LNA topology. Three LNAs operating at 50 and 65 GHz are fabricated in 0.18mum SiGe BiCMOS technology to validate the proposed methodology. The measured LNA performance agrees well With simulations and is close to the theoretical limit in the given technology. Several of the LNA low-noise design techniques are applied to the design of a 65-GHz receiver integrating an LNA, a down-conversion mixer, a full-rate VCO, and an IF amplifier. The fabricated receiver has a gain of 24 dB and a noise figure of 12 dB. Using compact on-chip inductors, the IC occupies an area of 0.6 mm2, several times smaller than similar published receivers. To the best of the author's knowledge, it is the first millimeter-wave silicon receiver to integrate the VCO on-chip.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Low Noise Amplifiers are the main components at the receiving end of nearly every communication system. The primary purpose of an LNA is to amplify the input signal while adding minimum noise as little as possible. This project consist of a 6 GHz three stage Low noise amplifier. NEC and CAS are used to create and simulate the design. Microwave office is used to design and simulate the final configuration. The LNA is designed to produce a 35dB gain and an overall noise figure of 2dB at 6GHz frequency. However, the actual design provides an overall gain of 50dB and a noise figure of 1.04dB. The LNA designed meets and exceeds our design requirements. Advancements in the technology and the end user requirement has also influenced in pushing these limits to a new level. This project gives a good base and hands on experience with the industrial standard tools. It also provides an overview of types of amplifiers, detailed design steps and types of matching techniques.
