The proposed circuit consists of a current reuse common source amplifier (CSA) in the forward path, and a positive simple transconductance amplifier (PSTA) in the feedback path. Theoretical calculation of the input admittance shows a positive part that presents a parallel inductance. This equivalent parallel inductance in the input can cancel out the input capacitance of CSA and electrostatic discharge (ESD) pad, enhancing the frequency bandwidth in the sub-GHz frequency band. Post-layout was simulated including ESD pads and package model in 130 nm CMOS technology, LNA achieves a voltage gain of 16.5 dB in a frequency bandwidth of 50 MHz to 1.1 GHz, noise figure (NF) of less than 2.4 dB, input return loss (S11) of -11 dB, input third order intercept point (IIP3) of -11 dBm and 1 mW power consumption from a 1 V power supply, showing a good figure of merit compared to other works. The occupied core area is less than 0.002 mm2.}, number={4}, journal={Majlesi Journal of Electrical Engineering}, publisher={OICC Press}, author={Bidabadi, Farshad Shirani and Mir-Moghtadaei, Sayed Vahid}, year={2024}, month={Feb.}, keywords={Low-power, Sub-GHz CMOS LNA, Broadband LNA, Prediction, PV panel, Solar output, GUI, ANN, IoT} }
