    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to devices, wireless communication apparatuses, methods, and circuitry implementing a low noise amplifier (LNA) with phase-shifting circuitry to achieve a continuous phase at the output of the LNA. One aspect is an amplifier including a high gain active path comprising active circuitry, and a low gain path comprising passive circuitry and phase-shifting circuitry. In one or more aspects, the phase-shifting circuitry is configured to shift a phase of an input signal within the low gain path such that the phase of an output signal outputted from the low gain path approximately matches a phase of an output signal outputted from the high gain active path. In at least one aspect, a gain of the high gain active path is higher than a gain of the low gain passive path.

    Abstract: Techniques for providing low-cost and effective jammer rejection for an amplifier is disclosed. The amplifier includes an input node and an output node, a first transistor and a second transistor, a load circuitry, an inductor, and a capacitor. A first terminal of the first transistor is coupled to a ground. A second terminal of the first transistor is coupled to a first terminal of the second transistor. A second terminal of the second transistor is coupled to the output node. The load circuitry is coupled between a power supply and the second terminal of the second transistor. A first terminal of the inductor is coupled to the ground through a first switch. A first terminal of the capacitor is coupled to the first terminal of the second transistor and a second terminal of the capacitor is coupled to a second terminal of the inductor.
