Abstract:
A transformer includes a first loops and second loops. The first loops include a first set of input terminals. The first loops include at least three loops that are conductively coupled to each other in series by first crossovers. The second loops include a first set of output terminals. The second loops include at least three loops that are conductively coupled to each other in series by second crossovers. Each of the second conductive loops is inductively coupled to and nested within a respective one of the first conductive loops.
Abstract:
In accordance with an embodiment of the disclosure, systems and methods are provided for multi-modal power amplification. In certain implementations, an adjustable power amplifier amplifies an input signal, and the amount of amplification is varied based on the input signal. A variable impedance unit receives an amplified input signal, and the amount of load impedance at the variable impedance unit is varied based on the input signal.
