Abstract
The imaginary part X(S/sub opt/) of the optimum noise impedance for extrinsic or packaged devices is investigated. The analysis modifies the well-known Pospieszalski noise model by applying a series feedback to the source port. A simple expression for X(S/sub opt/) is developed and is verified for extrinsic and packaged devices with a decreasing level of accuracy. The results give further insights into the way the parasitic inductors L/sub g/ and L/sub s/ affect the noise performance of the transistor and can help to design low-noise amplifier with simultaneous signal and noise power match at the input port.
