noise source is one aspect and its transfer function is another.
Taking simple common source and common gate, the gm of common gate if fixed for impedance matching, and thus best achievable NF=3dB. While for common source, you have freedom to choose larger gm and thus better than 3dB NF could be obtained. Again, this only applies to basic structure. If you combine common source and common gate (like noise canceling), you can also obtain better than 3dB NF. |
