Abstract
A reconfigurable low-noise amplifier (LNA) is disclosed. The reconfigurable LNA includes amplifier circuitry having a gate terminal coupled to an input terminal, a source terminal coupled to a fixed voltage node, and a drain terminal coupled to an output terminal. The reconfigurable LNA further includes a gamma inverting network (GIN) coupled between the input terminal and the fixed voltage node, wherein the GIN has a first switch configured to disable the GIN during operation at first frequencies within a lower frequency band relative to a higher frequency band and to enable the GIN during operation at second frequencies within the higher frequency band.
