Abstract:
An envelope tracking power supply and an offset capacitive element are disclosed. The offset capacitive element is coupled between a switching output and an analog output of the envelope tracking power supply, which operates in one of an envelope tracking mode, a transition mode, and an average power tracking mode. During the envelope tracking mode, the envelope tracking power supply provides an envelope power supply signal using both the switching output and the analog output. During the transition mode, the envelope tracking power supply drives a voltage across the offset capacitive element from a first voltage to a second voltage, such that during a transition from the envelope tracking mode to the transition mode, the offset capacitive element has the first voltage, and during a transition from the transition mode to the average power tracking mode, the offset capacitive element has the second voltage.
