Abstract
A CMOS LNA based on a single-stage cascode configuration is designed for MB-OFDM ultra-wide band(UWB) systems. Wideband($3.1GHz\~4.9GHz$) input matching is performed using a simple bandpass filter to minimize the chip size and the noise figure degradation. The simulation results using $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS process parameters show a power gain of 9.7dB, a 3dB band width of $2.1GHz\~7.1GHz$, a minimum NF of 2dB, an IIP3 of -2dBm. better than -11.8dB of input matching while occupying only $0.74mm^2$ of chip area. It consumes 25.8mW from a 1.8V supply.
