A wideband noise-cancelling low-noise amplifier (LNA) combining resistor feedback and source-follower feedback (SFF) is proposed. The SFF facilitates upsizing of the feedback resistor to improve the gain and noise figure (NF), without compromising the input-impedance matching. Another benefit is th...
