Researchers have demonstrated an integrated amplifier with the lowest noise performance so far. The amplifier offers new possibilities for detecting the faintest electromagnetic radiation, for example ...

This paper presents two approaches to improve the performance of RF low noise amplifiers (LNAs) and downconversion mixers. One approach is for noise enhancement and the other is for improving flatness ...

Noise in radio receivers is of great interest to anyone involved in wireless product design. Commonly used figures-of-merit include noise figure (NF), sensitivity ...

Even though engineers designing IC and low-frequencyproducts often use Spice to predict circuit-noise performance,designers of RF and high-frequency products havenot been able to use Spice to ...

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 ...
