초록

IMT-2000 전 대역(1920∼2170MHz, BW=250MHz)에서 사용되는 중계기용 2단 저잡음 증폭기를 설계하였다. Ansoft사의 Serenade를 이용하여 첫째 단 PHEMT의 소스와 접지간 source lead의 인덕턴스 값을 최적화하여 기판 선고로 등가화하고, 첫째 단의 잡음 정합은 물론 각 단의 정합회로가 간단하도록 high pass 구조로 설계하였다. 바이어스 회로는 단일 능동회로로 구성하였고, 인가전압은 8V, 총 전류는 180mA이다. 이때, 첫째 단 PHEMT의 Vgs = -0.4V, Vds = 4V이고, 둘째 단 AH1의 Vds = 5V이다. 상업화가 가능하도록 설계 기준을 정하여 제작되었고, 측정 결과 이득은 20dB, NF는 1dB, 입력 VSWR은 1.14∼l.3dB, P1dB는 22.4dBm, gain flatness는 ±0.45dB로 상업용 저잡음 증폭기로 사용될 수 있다.

The LNA(Low Noise Amplifier) is designed for use in low cost commercial application covered fully IMT-2000 band(1920~2170MHz, BW=250MHz). It is optimized source inductance for source lead and designed to equivalent etched line. The LNA uses a high pass impedance matching network for noise match and simple structure. The bias circuit designs have been made self-biased with a negative voltage applied to gate. The power supply voltage is 8V, total current is 180mA. The LNA is biased at a Vgs of -0.4, Vds of 4V for first stage and Vds of 5V for second stage. The LNA is designed competitively for commercial product specification. The measured gain and noise figure of the completed amplifier was 20dB and 1dB, respectively. Also, input VSWR, P1dB and gain flatness was measured of 1.14 ~ l.3dB, 22.4dBm and $\pm$0.45dB, respectively. The designed LNA can be used for commercial product.
