Design of a 0.7~2.6GHz Wideband Power Amplifier in 0.18-μm CMOS Process

Abstract:

A power amplifier (PA) for multi-mode multi-standard transceiver which is implemented in a TSMC 0.18μm process is presented. The proposed PA uses matching compensation, lossy matching network and negative feedback technique to improve bandwidth. To achieve the linearity performance, the two-stage PA operates in Class-A regime. Simulation results show that the power amplifier achieves maximum output power of more than 24dBm in 0.7~2.6GHz. The output P_1dB of the PA is larger than 22dBm. The simulated power gain is more than 27dB. The S11 is less than-10dB and the S22 is under-5dB.
