    Abstract: Exemplary embodiments are directed to operating a multi-stage amplifier with low-voltage supply voltages. A multi-stage amplifier may include a first path of an amplifier output stage configured to convey an output signal if a first supply voltage is greater than a threshold voltage. The multi-stage amplifier may also include a second path of the amplifier output stage configured to convey the output signal if the first supply voltage is less than or equal to the threshold voltage.

    Abstract: A bypass circuit (5) is disclosed for use with lower power supply voltage PC cards. The bypass circuit (5) controls the power supply voltage fed to a power amplifier (25) when switching between a lower power 8-PSK modulation mode and a higher power GMSK modulation mode. A step-up DC/DC converter (35) provides a higher voltage to the power amplifier (25) than can be supplied by an original power supply. Switch control logic (10) controls a step-up switch (15) and a battery switch (20). The step-up switch (15) is turned on when operating in an 8-PSK modulation mode to provide a higher voltage to the power amplifier (25) than the original power supply voltage (40). The battery switch (20) is turned on when operating in the GMSK modulation mode to provide the original power supply voltage (40) to the power amplifier (25).

    Abstract: The bias control (300) selectively provides for bias of a power amplifier (120) based upon a bandgap voltage (442) generated by the bias control, or by a bias voltage external to the bias control. A controller (420) controls the selection of either the bandgap voltage (442) or external bias voltage. The bias control is fabricated in a first semiconductor material capable of operating at low voltage supply levels, such as complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) material and may be fabricated on an integrated circuit common with a power amplifier.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a push-pull amplifier having a level shift circuit to generate different control signals to a driver of a switch. The amplifier has to cope with the voltage limitations of the device. To reduce standby power the level shifter is used. The solution of the invention has as one of the great advantages that only during transitions a current will flow.
