Abstract

Traditionally, low-noise amplifiers or LNAs have been used in high frequency applications, but for very high frequency ranges (i.e., 60 GHz), building an LNA to meet performance needs has been difficult. Here, however, an LNA has been provided that operates well around 60 GHz. In particularly, this LNA is generally unconditionally stable, has a generally low noise factor or NF, and has a generally high gain around 60 GHz.
