Abstract

An amplifier operates to provide a high output impedance at an output through a push stage having a first transistor of a first transistor type and a pull stage having a second transistor of a second transistor type that is different from the first transistor type. The first transistor and the second transistor are coupled in a common-gate configuration. The first transistor and the second transistor are shorted together via a capacitor coupled to an input and share a common current path as a push-pull current-reusing common-gate low noise amplifier with a broadband input matching.
