A hybrid common gate and common source structure balun LNA is adopted, and the capacitive cross-coupling technique is used to reduce the noise contribution of the common source transistor. To obtain low 1/f noise and high linearity, a current mode passive mixer is preferred and realized. A current mode switching scheme can switch between high and low gain modes, and meanwhile it can not only perform good linearity but save power consump- tion at low gain mode. The front-end chip is manufactured on a 0.13-#m CMOS process and occupies an active chip area of 1.2 mm2. It achieves 35 dB conversion gain across 4.9-5.1 GHz, a noise figure of 7.2 dB and an IIP3 of -16.8 dBm, while consuming 28.4 mA from a 1.2 V power supply at high gain mode. Its conversion gain is 13 dB with an IIP3 of 5.2 dBm and consumes 21.5 mA at low gain mode.展开更多
