Abstract: A new optimization method of a source inductive degenerated low noise amplifier (LNA) with electrostatic discharge protection is proposed. It can achieve power-constrained simultaneous noise and input matching. An analysis of the input impedance and the noise parameters is also given. Based on the developed method, a 2.4 GHz LNA for wireless sensor network application is designed and optimized using 0.18-μm RF CMOS technology. The measured results show that the LNA achieves a noise figure of 1.69 dB, a power gain of 15.2 dB, an input 1 dB compression point of -8 dBm and an input third-order intercept point of 1 dBm. The DC current is 4 mA under a supply of 1.8 V.
