Abstract
<?Pub Dtl=""?> This paper presents a highly linear wideband differential low-noise amplifier (LNA) for digital TV applications. The proposed LNA is a modified version of the wideband LNA reported by Bruccoleri <etal xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"/> in 2004. In order to increase the linearity of Bruccoleri <etal xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"/> 's LNA, the Volterra series is adopted to identify the nonlinear components and the noise-cancelling circuit is modified to eliminate the whole nonlinear components. Implemented in 0.13- <formula formulatype="inline" xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"><tex Notation="TeX">$\mu{\hbox {m}}$</tex> </formula> CMOS technology, the proposed wideband LNA has a gain of 12.4 dB and a noise figure of 1.6 dB, as determined from measurements, while drawing 18.45 mA from a 1.2-V supply. The proposed LNA has an <formula formulatype="inline" xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <tex Notation="TeX">${\rm IIP}_{3}$</tex></formula> of 16.6 dBm with 6-MHz frequency offset at 100 MHz, far exceeding the values of existing wideband LNAs.
