摘要：We present a design of broadband and wide dynamic range low noise amplifier/radio frequency variable gain amplifier (LNA/RF VGA) for digital video broadcasting – satellite (DVBS2) receiver tuner integrated circuit fabricated using the 0.18 μm complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) process. The MOS switching filter was used to get broadband characteristics of the LNA circuit and the MOS channel resistance with two attenuators was used to obtain a wide dynamic range characteristic of the RF VGA. The LNA/RF VGA block achieved a gain control range of 50 dB, IIP3 of +15 dBm at low gain mode and a noise figure of 6.3 dB at the frequency range of 950 MHz ~ 2150 MHz. The RF VGA circuit consumed a total current of 28 mA with the supply voltage of 1.8 V and the chip area was 1.4 mm × 0.6 mm including I/O pads.
