Abstract

A low-noise amplifier device includes an inductive input element, an amplifier circuit, an inductive output element and an inductive degeneration element. The amplifier device is formed in and on a semiconductor substrate. The semiconductor substrate supports metallization levels of a back end of line structure. The metal lines of the inductive input element, inductive output element and inductive degeneration element are formed within one or more of the metallization levels. The inductive input element has a spiral shape and the an amplifier circuit, an inductive output element and an inductive degeneration element are located within the spiral shape.
