1. A low-noise amplifier (LNA) for receiving ultrasonic echo signals from a piezo-electric transducer via a coaxial cable having different characteristic impedance said LNA comprising: an input terminal, an output terminal, and a transconductor circuit sequentially connected to a current-to-voltage (I-to-V) converter, wherein the transconductance parameter of said transconductor circuit is operable to match the characteristic impedance of the cable. |
