Abstract:
There is disclosed a method, in an amplifier stage comprising an amplifier and a modulated supply, the amplifier being arranged to amplify an input signal and the modulated supply being arranged to generate a supply voltage for the amplifier by tracking an envelope of the signal to be amplified, the method comprising: comparing the relative timing of a signal representing the current drawn by the amplifier from the modulated supply and a signal representing the voltage generated at the output of the modulated supply; and in dependence upon a difference in the relative timing, adjusting the timing of either the input signal to be amplified or the generated supply voltage to reduce the difference in the relative timing.
