Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of radio frequency integrated circuits, and in particular relates to a full differential CMOS multimode low-noise amplifier. The low-noise amplifier can be applied to a front end of a multimode receiver with the frequency of between 0.5 and 10.6 GHz. The low-noise amplifier consists of a matching stage, an amplification stage, a feedback stage and a loading stage, wherein the matching stage tunes broadband input impedance by using a feedback inductor; the amplification stage takes a current multiplexing common source NMOS tube and a PMOS tube as an input end and takes a common gate NMOS tube connected with the output of drain terminals of the NMOS tube and the PMOS tube as a current follower; an NMOS tube between a grid of an input NMOS tube and a drain of the NMOS tube of the current follower forms a 'voltage-current' type negative feedback circuit with a resistor; and the loading stage adopts resistive load. The full differential CMOS multimode low-noise amplifier has the advantages of simple structure, small chip occupied area, low power consumption and wide bandwidth coverage.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of radio frequency integrated circuits, and specifically relates to the design of a fully differential low noise amplifier with high gain, low noise and good input matching, and is especially applied to the front end of a 0.5-10.6GHz multi-mode receiver. It is suitable for multi-mode receiver systems including GSM, WCDMA, Bluetooth, WLAN, UWB, etc. Background technique [0002] Multi-mode RF receiver systems are currently a research hotspot in academia and industry. The compatibility of multiple communication modes is realized through a single receiver link, which can reduce the power consumption of the whole machine and the area of ​​the chip at the same time. [0003] The low-noise amplifier is one of the most critical modules in the front-end of the receiver. Its function is to amplify the weak signal received by the antenna and suppress the noise of the receiver's post-stage circuit. This requires that...
