pls help me how to calculate NF of my LNA ckt.
 

Hi,
You design a LNA ckt for a NF and gain. So you use the equations back and derive the noise which is pretty tedious. The other approach is you can use ADS and measure (simulate) the gain and NF.

Hope this helps

hi BRM
my qn is how to simulate to calculate the noise figure and linerity.
THANX 4 UR REPLY.
 

If you're using SpectreRF, the answer can be found easy. You can check NF from "noise" or "pnoise". For linearity, you can perform "pss" simulation and see CP1, IP2 and IP3. Read SpectreRF manual for more details.
