A 130 nm CMOS LNA for Satellite Application

This work presents the design of a narrowband Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) that is a part of a transponder project of a UHF satellite for the Brazilian Environmental Data Collecting System (SBCDA). The proposed LNA operates at 401.635 MHz moreover, it provides 28dB of power gain, 3.6dB of noise figure (NF), IIP3 of -28 dBm and 6.53 mW of power consumption and it was designed in a standard 130 nm CMOS process.
