This paper presents a high linearity and low power Low-Noise Amplifier (LNA) for Ultra-Wideband (UWB) receivers based on CHRT 0.18[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]m Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (CMOS) technology. In this work, the folded topology is adopted in order to reduce the supply voltage and power consumption. Moreover, a band-pass LC filter is embedded in the folded-cascode circuit to extend bandwidth. The transconductance nonlinearity has a great impact on the whole LNA linearity performance under a low supply voltage. A post-distortion (PD) technique employing an auxiliary transistor is applied in the transconductance stage to improve the linearity. The post-layout simulation results indicate that the proposed LNA achieves a maximum power gain of 12.8[Formula: see text]dB. The input and output reflection coefficients both are lower than [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]dB over 2.5–11.5[Formula: see text]GHz. The input third-order intercept point (IIP3) is 5.6[Formula: see text]dBm at 8[Formula: see text]GHz and the noise figure (NF) is lower than 4.0[Formula: see text]dB. The LNA consumes 5.4[Formula: see text]mW power under a 1[Formula: see text]V supply voltage.

To improve the performance of analog, RF, and digital integrated circuits, the cutting-edge advanced CMOS technology has been widely utilized. We successfully designed and implemented a high-speed and low-power serial-to-parallel (S2P) converter for 5G applications based on the 28 nm CMOS technology. It can update data easily and quickly using the proposed address allocation method. To verify the performances, an embedded system (NI-FPGA) for fast clock generation on the evaluation board level was also used. The proposed S2P converter circuit shows extremely low power consumption of 28.1 uW at 0.91 V with a core die area of 60 × 60 μm2 and operates successfully over a wide clock frequency range from 5 M to 40 MHz.
