Abstract

Multi-mode broadband low noise amplifiers (LNAs) are disclosed herein. In certain embodiments, an LNA includes a first amplification stage and a second amplification stage having a lower gain than the first amplification stage. The LNA is operable in a plurality of operating modes including a first mode in which the first amplification stage and the second amplification stage operate in a cascade to amplify a radio frequency (RF) receive signal, and a second mode in which the first amplification stage amplifies the RF receive signal and the second amplification stage is bypassed.
