    摘要: Amplifier circuitry is disclosed for receiving a differential signal and outputting a single-ended output signal. A travelling wave amplifier has a plurality of amplifier elements connected between an input transmission line and an output transmission line, each extending between first and second sides of the travelling wave amplifier. The input transmission line is configured to receive the first differential signal component at the first side and the output transmission line is configured to provide the single-ended output signal at the second side. A matched transmission line, which is configured to match at least some transmission properties of the input transmission line, receive the second differential signal component at the first end. A differential termination network is connected to both the input transmission line and matched and the matched transmission line and is configured to provide differential termination of signals received at the first and second termination inputs.

    摘要: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for a programmable input impedance circuit for a radio frequency (RF) low noise amplifier (LNA) including a high impedance mode circuit and a low impedance mode circuit. The high impedance mode circuit includes an inductor-degenerated transconductor transistor, an inductor selectively coupled between a source of the inductor-degenerated transconductor transistor and a ground, and a capacitor coupled between a gate of the inductor-degenerated transconductor transistor and the source of the inductor-degenerated transconductor transistor. The low impedance mode circuit includes a shunt resistor selectively coupled between an RF input source and an alternating current (AC) ground.
