To overcome limitations on bandwidth extension in conventional design techniques, a novel pole-converging technique with transformer feedback for intrastage bandwidth extension is proposed and analyzed in this paper. For verification, a three-stage cascode low-noise amplifier (LNA) based on the pole...
