Abstract
This letter presents a 0.9–1.8-GHz cryo-CMOS low-noise amplifier (LNA) built-in standard 65-nm CMOS for highly integrated radio astronomy receivers. The measured cryogenic noise parameters confirm noise matching in the band and demonstrate that the LNA nears its minimum noise temperature at the desired frequency range. The proposed LNA operates at 20 K, consumes 115 mW of power, and provides a 37.2 ± 2.4 dB gain ( <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$S_{21}$ </tex-math></inline-formula> ) with a noise temperature (figure) of 2.3 to 8.5 K (0.03 to 0.13 dB) and <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$| S_{11}| < -10$ </tex-math></inline-formula> dB.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
