Abstract

A low noise amplifier(LNA) using electro-magnetic field simulator is designed in standard 0.25um CMOS process. Integrated spiral inductor is simulated using EM field solver. Then LNA is simulated with active device, capacitor and simulated inductor by EM field solver. A S11 and S21 of -15.45dB and 17.8dB at 2.3GHz as simulation results was achieved. A Noise Figure is 2.92dB. And Measurements show a S11 and S21 of -12.4dB and 17.8dB at 2.3GHz. A Noise Figure of 3.3dB was achieved.
