Accurately predict measured noise figures for transformer coupled differential amplifiers (Part 1 of 2)

Using a transformer coupled differential inverting amplifier stage can give a very low input referred noise voltage or Noise Figure (NF) with exceptional SFDR/mW. The NF equation needs to include ...
