EE 414 - The LNA lab

Update: Vimeo has a great way of letting authors create ‘channels’ for videos that center around a theme. You can follow all EE 414 related videos here: http://www.vimeo.com/ee414. How about that…they even let you use a custom URL. You can even grab an RSS feed of a channel too. Well done.

This week’s lab experiment was to design and build a low noise amplifier. Most people worked on simulations, but the last couple of days people started making stuff in the lab. Here are some pictures and video.

Kamal works on his board

Andy and I work on our boards…I’m soldering a surface mount capacitor.

Jonathan and Andy scheme ways to get a better noise figure…

Andy plays the skeptic as Jonathan gets desperate trying to lower his noise figure

This is the first rev of my LNA.
