Abstract

A low noise narrow band amplifier with low power consumption for amplifying radio frequency and microwave signals. The amplifier includes a high frequency transistor that has a cut-off frequency greater than the center frequency of the input signal. The amplifier includes an emitter inductor for low noise and better input match. The amplifier is stabilized for out-of-band high frequency oscillations by a collector inductor and a base inductor. The amplifier is further stabilized unconditionally for out-of-band high frequency oscillations by a stabilizing circuit coupled between the output and ground, including a stabilizing capacitor in series with a stabilizing resistor.
