Low noise amplifier with improved linearity in low gain mode
摘要:
A low noise amplifier that includes a first cascode, a second cascode, an input circuit, an output node, a first switch, and a second switch. A source of a first common gate transistor and a drain of a first common source transistor of the first cascode are coupled to a first node of the low noise amplifier. The output node is coupled to a drain of the first common gate transistor, and to a drain of a second common gate transistor of the second cascode, thereby coupling the first cascode and the second cascode to a power supply via a load. The first switch is coupled between a gate of the first common gate transistor and the power supply. The second switch is coupled between the first node and the power supply. The first switch is configured to be open and the second switch is configured to be closed when the low noise amplifier operates at a first operational node. The first switch is configured to be closed and the second switch is configured to be open when the low noise amplifier operates at a second operational node that differs from the first operational mode by at least a gain of the low noise amplifier.
