In this article, a 22.9–38.2-GHz dual-path noise-canceling low noise amplifier (LNA) is proposed, which can achieve a low noise figure (NF) by reducing the noise of both paths. Such LNA consists of one common gate (CG) amplifier with one three-stage transformer, one resistive feedback common-source (CS) amplifier, and two amplitude-adjusting amplifiers. The three-stage transformer is used in the CG amplifier to provide gain-boosting, noise-reducing, and wideband inter-stage matching operation, simultaneously. Meanwhile, amplitude-adjusting amplifiers with reconfigurable phase-tuning lines are utilized in both paths to optimize the noise-canceling performance. To verify the aforementioned principle, a dual-path noise-canceling LNA is implemented and fabricated using a conventional 28-nm CMOS technology. The proposed LNA consumed 18.9 mW under a 0.9-V supply. The measured NF is 2.65–4.62 dB within the operating frequency range of 22.9–38.2 GHz, while the peak gain is 14.5 dB. The in-band input 1-dB compression point (IP1 dB) and input third-order intercept point (IIP3) are −13.2 to −6.6 and −3.6 to 3.2 dBm, respectively.
