Abstract:
Disclosed herein are circuits, devices and methods that address challenges associated with power amplifier systems. A power amplifier system includes two or more fast error amplifiers coupled to corresponding power amplifiers. The fast error amplifiers are configured to generate envelope tracking signals based on a signal envelope, the envelope tracking signals modifying a DC-DC regulated voltage from a DC-DC converter to more efficiently operate the power amplifiers. By splitting the envelope tracking between two or more fast error amplifiers and amplification between corresponding two or more power amplifiers, the power, frequency or bandwidth, linearity, signal-to-noise ratio, efficiency, or the like of the power amplifier system can be improved. Wireless communications configurations with such power amplifier systems can provide uplink carrier aggregation and/or cellular signals based on standards and protocols that require increased bandwidth and/or power.
