About this document

A Wideband Inductorless LNA Employing Active Complementary Current-Reuse Balun by Avinash Akotkar is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This paper presents a novel inductorless low-noise amplifier (LNA) designed for cognitive radios, operating from 50 MHz to 5 GHz, utilizing a complementary current-reuse balun topology. The LNA achieves a voltage gain of 25.3 dB, a noise figure of 3.6 to 5.0 dB, and occupies a compact area of 0.0094 mm² with a power dissipation of 16.7 mW. The proposed design enhances linearity and reduces noise, making it suitable for wideband applications in wireless communications.
