Focus on the design of the LNA.
a) Single stage CS vs CG
b) Add cascode?
--- Pros vs cons
c) Biasing - via current mirror and/or resistive divider
d) Transformer for impedance transformation and input voltage boosting
--- PDK IND vs TRANSFORMER model (analogLib IND + MIND)
--- Inverting (CS/CG + negative current fb from source to gate) vs non-inverting (e.g., CG + positive current fb from drain to source)
e) Load - LC-tankCapacitor trimming?
--- Switched capacitor n/w
d) Setup the test-bench
--- DC, SP, PSS/HB (for P1dB: plot Pin vs Pout)
Explain your design choices, e.g., topology! Add pertinent design data, e.g., PDK component parameters, dc current, etc.
If you still haven't solved the filter yet, wrap that up fast.
Please ask questions in the lab!

Lectures on the 20th and the 22nd (and not the regular lab session) will be taught at Perl and Chill respectively.
No lecture planned for this week. Will be in Oslo for the next 2 lectures, i.e., Oct. 6 & 8 (instead of lab).
Tomorrow's lecture via Zoom (see invite below) is going to be a recap on transistors before we dive into amplifiers.
For those that are comfortable w/ basic theory, feel free to skip it.

Please note that tomorrow's lab session is cancelled. If you have any questions for the TA, please send him an email or reach out over teams. Continue w/ the design of the passive filter. Thanks!
Lecture will is on Tuesday at Perl. Notes added.
As a polite reminder, there will be no lecture tomorrow (08/09). Next lecture will be on the 15th in Perl.

We'll wrap up what's left of Lecture 2 and then do a quick review plus go over the LC filter tool.

Polite reminder:
I'll be giving Lecture 2 tomorrow morning instead of the regular lab session.
Hope to see you'll for Lecture 1 tomorrow at Perl.
There is no lecture tomorrow.
We will start the lectures as of the 25th.
Even though the lecture notes should suffice, we recommend reading:
