        Today, one of the most important issues in mobile communication systems is having a long battery life. Therefore, the problem of power consumption appears as one of the challenges in the field of designing high frequency circuits. In a high-frequency receiver, due to the placement of the low-noise amplifier in the first stage of the receiver, this amplifier is very important to determine the linearity and noise in the entire receiver. In this paper, a low noise amplifier has been designed for the GPS standard. Compared to previous works, the noise of the amplifier has been reduced somehow, and its power consumption has reached its minimum value. The working method is that in common source amplifiers, their source base is connected with an inductor, which results in improving circuit noise. But the used inductor occupies the surface of the chip. Therefore, in this article, the existence of the inductor in wire-bond is used, and the noise of the amplifier is reduced, and the occupied area of the chip is not increased. Gain, NF, input impedance of the proposed amplifier have been calculated in the best case and the worst case in the corners of FF and SS, and it can be seen that in this article, compared to the previous works, very favorable results have been obtained.

        This article presents a common low-noise CMOS gate amplifier with active induction load. For large amounts of inductance, a passive inductor on the chip requires a significant area of the chip and its quality factor is limited. A situation that can be considered impractical. Therefore, the purpose of this work is to search for the possibility of using active inductors in RF circuits as a substitute for their inactive counterpart. In addition, this active inducer is programmable. It is possible to design an amplifier with a programmable central frequency. It is also shown that with proper and optimal design, the contribution of active inductor noise can be minimized. HSPICE simulation using 0.35 µm technology showed that our amplifier has a half-decade tuning range for 1GHz. The gain, noise number and power consumption of the simulated are 20dB, 3.65dB, 14mw, respectively. Manuscript profile

         The following paper presents the design and simulation of a low-noise amplifier (LNA) using complementary low power-metal oxide (CMOS) transistors for LAN applications (WLAN 802.11). Input The external capacitor switch connected to the gate-source transistor input node is used in 2 bands of 4.2 and 2.5 GHz. In simultaneous structures using the resonant frequency of the LC tank circuit, the desired frequency is selected, while in the proposed LNA structure, this frequency selection is done only by adding a capacitive switch to the normal degenerate source structure. This reduces the occupied space. It has structures in the circuit compared to others. In addition, the use of the transistor switch technique reduces the power consumption compared to other structures LNA. The offer has a 1 volt power supply and a current of 3.2 mA. The circuit has scattering parameters S11 and S22 less than 19 dB in both frequency bands and has noise numbers of 3.2 and 3.5 dB at 4.2 and 2.5 GHz, respectively. Power output is greater than 20 dB Manuscript profile

        Implantable multi-channel neural recording Microsystems comprise a large number of neural amplifiers, that can affect the overall power consumption and chip area of the analog part of the system.power, noise, size and dc offset are the main challenge faced by designers. Ideally the output of the opamp should be at zero volts when the inputs are grounded.In reality the input terminals are at slightly different dc potentials.The input offset voltage is defined as the voltage that must be applied between the two input terminals of the opamp to obtain zero volts at the output. Amplifier must have capability to reject this dc offset. First method that uses a capacitor feedback network with ac coupling of input devices to reject the offset is very popular in designs.very small low-cutoff frequency.The second method employs a closed-loop resistive feedback and electrode capacitance to form a highpass filter.Moreover,The third method adopts the symmetric floating resistor the feedback path of low noise amplifier to achieve low-frequency cutoff and rejects DC offset voltage. .In some application we can use folded cascade topology.The telescopic topology is a good candidate in terms of providing large gain and phase margin while dissipating small power. the cortical VLSI neuron model reducing power consumption of circuits.Power distribution is the best way to reduce power, noise and silicon area. The total power consumption of the amplifier array is reduced by applying the partial OTA sharing technique. The silicon area is reduced as a benefit of sharing the bulky capacitor Manuscript profile
