    Abstract: A radio frequency circuit includes an amplifier capable of amplifying a first radio frequency signal and a second radio frequency signal that has a frequency different from a frequency of the first radio frequency signal. Here, the amplifier uses a first power-supply voltage to amplify one of the first radio frequency signal and the second radio frequency signal and uses a second power-supply voltage to amplify both the first radio frequency signal and the second radio frequency signal together. A value of the second power-supply voltage is greater than a value of the first power-supply voltage.
