This paper presents the design of a Low-Noise Amplifier (LNA) in the 4 GHz - 6 GHz band developed in a commercial 12-nm FinFET technology, for cryogenic qubit readout circuitry. The LNA proposed in this work is a common source cascode amplifier with inductive degeneration on the source able to offer more than 18.8 dB of gain in the 4 GHz - 6 GHz band along with a noise figure of about 1.5 dB at room temperature and is, therefore, a good candidate for cryogenic applications where the noise is further attenuated.

Abstract

This paper presents the design of a Low-Noise Amplifier (LNA) in the 4 GHz - 6 GHz band developed in a commercial 12-nm FinFET technology, for cryogenic qubit readout circuitry. The LNA proposed in this work is a common source cascode amplifier with inductive degeneration on the source able to offer more than 18.8 dB of gain in the 4 GHz - 6 GHz band along with a noise figure of about 1.5 dB at room temperature and is, therefore, a good candidate for cryogenic applications where the noise is further attenuated.
