    Does Yopt = Gopt + jBopt depend on Ls, Lg in cascode LNA?

    Thanks. According to the application note, , Yopt is calculated as follows: In this case, Gopt and Bopt depend on Gc, Gu, Rn, and Bc. Yc = Gc + jBc also depends on input referred noise sources, Vn and In as shown in that page. Vn and In, in turn, depend on Ls and Lg. Therefore, Yopt will...

    Does Yopt = Gopt + jBopt depend on Ls, Lg in cascode LNA?

    Here is a cascode LNA. Does NFmin depend on Lg and Ls? And does Yopt = Gopt + jBopt depend on Ls, Lg?

    Round robin: a special case as two processed one used up it time quantum and the othe

    I need help with this. Round robin: a special case as two processed one used up it time quantum and the other arrives at the same time. For example, we has the following processes: Process P1: + Arrival time: 0 + Burst time: 7 Process P2: + Arrival time: 5 + Burst time: 7 Assuming that...

    Why Fmin in cascode LNA doesn't affect by the feedback inductor?

    I attached the pictures about my calculation here. Hope experts can help me out.

    Why Fmin in cascode LNA doesn't affect by the feedback inductor?

    It would be great if you could help me with this. I write this post based on the book "The Design of CMOS Radio-Frequency Integrated Circuits" by Thomas H. Lee. Here is a summary about noise factor of a two-port network. A noisy two-port network is represented as follows. And here is the...

    Why Fmin in cascode LNA doesn't affect by the feedback inductor?

    Because when we add Ls into the circuit, the circuit is no longer a cascode but a cascode degradation. Therefore, its gain also changes. The added Ls doesn't change noise source because it is losses. As gain changes, the input-referred noise (current and voltage sources) also changes => F...

    Why Fmin in cascode LNA doesn't affect by the feedback inductor?

    Hello, Ls is lossless; it doesn't contribute noise source to the circuit but it changes the circuit topology and therefore changes voltage gain and finally changes Fmin. That is my thought. By the way, is there a way to find Fmin of a circuit without knowing F? As BigBoss said Fmin doesn't...

    Why Fmin in cascode LNA doesn't affect by the feedback inductor?

    Thanks, I know the difference between F and Fmin. What confused me is why Fmin is independent on Ls. I tried a lot to calculate Fmin as in the file but didn't get that result. In my calculation Fmin depends on Ls. Fmin increases if Ls increases. At the APPENDIX they gave a proof for that...

    Why Fmin in cascode LNA doesn't affect by the feedback inductor?

    I am reading this paper and in formula (11 ) page 3, it shows that minimum noise factor Fmin isn't affected by Ls. Please look at this: **broken link removed**

    Why Fmin in cascode LNA doesn't affect by the feedback inductor?

    Is there an intuitive way to explain why in cascode LNA the feedback inductor in the source doesn't affect to minimum noise factor, Fmin?

    Power amplifier for very low input power and high gain

    Yes, the load resistance that I calculated is the one we get after impedance transformation network. For example, with 50 ohms load we can make it up to 10 Gohms with impedance transfomation network.

    Power amplifier for very low input power and high gain

    I don't know why it is wrong? Assuming that the output voltage swings between 0 and 2Vdd and it is a sinusoidal. => P = Vrms^2/Rload = (Vdd/sqrt(2))^2/Rload = Vdd^2/(2Rload).

    Power amplifier for very low input power and high gain

    Yes, I was mistaken. For design such a low output power, is there a procedure to do it? I tried to do it as the way to design a normal power amplifier but because Pout is very low and therefore Rload from the formula Pout = Vdd^2/(2RLoad) is very very large about tens giga ohms.

    Power amplifier for very low input power and high gain

    Well, with output power +10dBm do you mean that power gain have to be 110dB? My input power is very small, it is -120dBm.

    Power amplifier for very low input power and high gain

    What type of power amplifier good for amplification signal with very low input power about -120dBm and high gain about 30dB? It is used in GNSS receiver.
