    Abstract: A power amplifier circuit includes: a high pass filter that has one end into which a high frequency input signal is inputted; a first amplifier that amplifies the high frequency input signal outputted from the other end of the high pass filter and outputs a high frequency signal obtained through the first amplification; a second amplifier that amplifies the high frequency signal and outputs a high frequency output signal obtained through the second amplification; an automatic transformer that performs impedance matching between the first amplifier and the second amplifier; and an impedance circuit, one end of which is electrically connected with the other end of the high pass filter, the other end of which is electrically connected with an output terminal of a bias circuit outputting bias voltage or bias current to the first amplifier, and that outputs the high frequency input signal to the bias circuit.

    Abstract: A power amplifier module includes a first amplifier, a power splitter, a second amplifier, a third amplifier, a phase shifter, a combining unit, and a controller. The first amplifier amplifies a first signal and outputs a second signal. The power splitter splits the second signal into a third signal and a fourth signal. The second amplifier amplifies the third signal and outputs a fifth signal. The third amplifier amplifies the fourth signal and outputs a sixth signal. The phase shifter receives the fifth signal and shifts a phase of the fifth signal. The combining unit combines the fifth signal having the phase shifted by the phase shifter and the sixth signal and outputs an amplified signal of the second signal. The controller outputs a first control signal for controlling a power level of the sixth signal output from the third amplifier.

    Abstract: A high-frequency module includes a transmission signal amplifier that outputs a transmission signal to an antenna terminal side; a reception signal amplifier that amplifies a reception signal supplied from an antenna terminal; a switch that selectively connects the antenna terminal to either an output of the transmission signal amplifier or an input of the reception signal amplifier; and a directional coupler that is provided on a transmission signal path and detects a signal level of the transmission signal. The transmission signal amplifier is controlled by a first control signal supplied from a first control circuit. The reception signal amplifier is controlled by a second control signal supplied from a second control circuit. The switch is controlled by a switch control signal supplied from the first control circuit. The directional coupler is controlled by a coupler control signal supplied from the first control circuit.
