    摘要: An RF power module in which operating voltage is controlled by a control signal based on amplitude information includes a temperature detecting device which is provided over a semiconductor chip formed with an amplifying transistor or a semiconductor chip formed with a power source circuit; and a detector having a hysteresis characteristic which is provided over the semiconductor chip formed with the device or a different semiconductor chip, applies a bias to the temperature detecting device to compare the state of the device at two reference levels, outputs a signal indicating abnormality when judging that the temperature of the semiconductor chip formed with the temperature detecting device is above a predetermined temperature, and outputs a signal indicating normality when judging that the temperature of the semiconductor chip is below a second predetermined temperature lower than the predetermined temperature.

    摘要: A wireless communication apparatus, which is designed to control the output power without using the power control signal sent from the base station, comprises a high-frequency power amplifier for transmission, a detection means which measures the output power of the power amplifier, and an automatic power control circuit which controls the output power of the power amplifier based on information provided by the detection means. The power amplifier includes an amplifying system which has multiple amplifying stages and is connected between the input and output terminals, and bias circuits which supply bias voltages to transistors of the respective amplifying stages. The bias circuits, which supply the bias voltages to the multiple amplifying stages excluding the last amplifying stage, are each made up of multiple resistors. Each of these bias circuits divides with the resistors the voltage of the entered power control signal to produce a bias voltage, which has a linear response to the control signal for low-power mode, to be fed to the control terminal of the amplifying stage. The bias circuit which supplies a bias voltage to the last amplifying stage includes a circuit which produces a bias voltage which has a nonlinear response to the control signal for high-power mode.
