An RF amplifier can include multiple gain stages, wherein each gain stage can be DC coupled to an adjacent gain stage. Each input gain stage can include either n-type gain transistors or p-type gain transistors. Multiple input gain stages can be designed/built by interleaving input gain stages of different types. Notably, an input gain stage including n-type gain transistors has a p-type bias transistor. Similarly, an input gain stage including p-type gain transistors has an n-type bias transistor. In this configuration, the bias transistor is the same type as the downstream gain transistors. Therefore, each bias transistor can accurately track the behavior of the transconductance devices of the next gain stage.
