Abstract

A low noise amplification circuit comprises a low noise amplifier and a filter coupled to the input terminal of the low noise amplifier. The low noise amplifier comprises an amplifying element and a matching input circuit coupled to the input terminal of the amplifying element. When gamma.sub.s shows a reflection factor in the case that signals flow from the input terminal of the amplifying element to the output terminal of the matching input circuit, impedance conversion for setting the gamma.sub.s at a desired value is made entirely or in part by means of setting the output impedance of the filter at the value different from that of characteristic impedance.
