Abstract

In this chapter the theory and mathematics of general LNAs are explored. This is the first chapter in which practical LNA configurations are explored in detail, whereas previous chapters served as a build-up towards this chapter, describing the background of millimeter-wave research, amplifier design, semiconductor technologies and active and passive devices. This chapter opens with a short discussion on the research, design and development considerations for millimeter-wave applications, mostly as a summary of the research from previous chapters. In the rest of the chapter, some of the most popular LNA topologies are introduced, described and compared against one another. Single-ended and differential configurations are treated separately because of their fundamental differences. Specific challenges associated with millimeter-wave design for different topologies are discussed in more detail as the chapter progresses.
