<LNA Design Using SpectreRF>对此的解释是:
“The result in Figure 1-14 where Γs=0 and NF=3dB matches the result in Figure 1-15.”
换言之,spectre定义,过Γs=0的noise circle对应的NF就是当前匹配状态的NF。但是对于noise circle中Γs不为0的点,又具有什么含义呢?
You use 50 ohm for your input port.
The other region on smith chart means that
If your input port impedance is a complex impedance on NF=1 circle other than 50 ohm,
Then, you also get NF=1 as noise circle show you.
