Abstract:
A transmitter circuit includes an amplifier configured to output a radio frequency (RF) signal on an output node, a power detection circuit coupled with the output node and configured to generate an output voltage having a first component based on a power level of the RF signal, and a reference voltage generator configured to generate a reference voltage. A comparator is configured to receive the output voltage and the reference voltage, an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) is coupled between the comparator and the amplifier, and the amplifier is configured to adjust the power level of the RF signal responsive to an output of the ADC.
