Is Lee's guide & equations for the design of LNA perfect

Hi,

In Thomas H. Lee's " The Design of CMOS Radio-Frequency Integrated Circuits", he provides the simple guide and equations for the design of LNA.

Does his equations and guide look perfect? Whether it is too simple?

Thanks

lee's book is good , and the chapter of LNA is ok
u can try them , and apply them to ur design , and see

in RFIC u need to read alot , and see the different approchs in the design , and select the good one , with measurmets close to simulation and design

khouly

so, u means lee's theory is good start.

thank u

sure , the LNA treatment in Lee's is ok

also u can check the treatment in the berkely EE142 lec's are great also

khouly

Some of the these equations to calculate the noise figure had been revised, you can find it in JSSC IEEE paper.
and it is not easy to find them usually.
but it is still good instruction for designer, I think.
