Summary
<p><span style="font-family: "PT Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 15px;">Engineers often perceive RF-low-noise-amplifier design as a difficult task. Obtaining a low-noise figure with high stable gain can be challenging—even intimidating. However, with the recent evolution of GaAs (gallium-arsenide) heterojunction FETs, you can design amplifiers with a less-than-1-dB noise figure and high stable gain</span><span style="font-family: "PT Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 15px;">. This Design Idea describes a low-noise amplifier with a 0.77-dB noise figure.</span><br style="font-family: "PT Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 15px;"></p>
