Abstract:This paper proposed a dual-band variable gain low noise amplifier (DBVG-LNA) by using SMIC 0.13 μm RF CMOS process. The DBVG-LNA can be used in GSM900/DCS1800 dual-band wireless networking communication system. The multi-resonance network and switching resonant network are used respectively to achieve the input and output dual-band impedance matching. The common gate bypass transistor and switching resistance are used to obtain four variable gains, effectively solving the problem where the variable band and variable gain are incompatible. In addition, a cascode differential topology was used to get a high isolation and a low second harmonic distortion. With a supply power of 1.2 V, the layout area of the circuit is 0.43 μm×0.65 μm. The simulation results show that when the voltage gain range is 20.6~12.7 dB, NF is 1.45~2.05 dB in GSM900 band, while when the voltage gain range is 19.3~11.2 dB, NF is 1.36~2.55 dB in DCS1800 band. Moreover, both S11 are below -17 dB.

随着移动互联时代的到来,无线通讯产品支持多种通信标准成为迫切需求[1],兼容多频段的射频前端成为了目前热门的研究对象.除此之外,为了扩展系统动态范围,要求射频前端增益可配置.低噪声放大器常作为接收链路的第一级,其增益、线性度及噪声系数等指标直接影响接收前端的整体性能.近年来,在多标准接收机设计中,完成一款频带和增益同时可配置的低噪声放大器显得尤为重要.

有很多种实现双频段的方法,文献[2]采用三阶切比雪夫带通滤波器实现宽带输入阻抗匹配,但引入宽频段的噪声对后级镜像抑制提出更高要求.文献[3]采用工作在不同频段的低噪声放大器并联结构,面积和功耗都因此增加一倍.文献[4]论述了开关切换电感,调整谐振频率的方法,但阻抗匹配程度受限于片内电感的……
