Performance analysis of parasitic effect on distributed spiral inductor for 0.15 μm GaAs pHEMT MMIC low noise amplifier

This paper presents the effect of measured distributed spiral inductor in monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) low noise amplifier (LNA) performance. Using S-parameter simulation, the LNA performance between lump and distributed circuit are compared at 2.4 GHz. The utilized measured spiral...
