Abstract

To investigate the relationship between the specifications degradation of a low-noise amplifier (LNA) and temperature, we experimentally investigated the degradation characteristics of the specifications of the LNA at different temperatures. The small-signal gain (S21) of the LNA decreases with increasing temperature. This paper discusses and analyzes the experimental results in detail, and the reasons for the degradation of LNA specifications with temperature changes are known. Finally, we have tried to use the structure already available in the literature for the PA temperature compensation circuit for the temperature compensation of the LNA. The results show that the existing circuit structure for PA temperature compensation in the literature can also effectively compensate for the S21 and NF degradation of the LNA due to the temperature increase.
