    Abstract: An active balun circuit includes first and second transistors having emitters electrically coupled to each other and configured to output differential signals and a circuit element coupled between the connection point of the emitter of the first transistor and the emitter of the second transistor and a reference potential. The impedance of the circuit element at a particular frequency of the input signal appears significantly larger than impedances at other frequencies. An input signal from an input terminal is inputted to the base of the first transistor. The reference potential is applied to the base of the second transistor. A supply voltage is applied to the collector of the first transistor and the collector of the second transistor. A signal from the collector of the first transistor and a signal from the collector of the second transistor are outputted as the differential signals.

    Abstract: A matching network is a matching network of a power amplifier circuit that outputs a signal obtained by a differential amplifier amplifying power of a high-frequency signal. The matching network includes an input-side winding connected between differential outputs of the differential amplifier; an output-side winding that is coupled to the input-side winding via an electromagnetic field and whose one end is connected to a reference potential; a first LC series resonant circuit including a capacitive element and an inductive element connected in series with each other, and being connected in parallel with the input-side winding; and a second LC series resonant circuit including a capacitive element and an inductive element connected in series with each other, and being connected in parallel with the output-side winding.

    Abstract: A transmission unit includes: a power amplification module that amplifies the power of an input signal and outputs an amplified signal; and a power supply module that supplies a power supply voltage to the power amplification module on the basis of a first control signal corresponding to the band width of the input signal. On the basis of the first control signal, the power supply module varies the power supply voltage in accordance with the amplitude level of the input signal in the case where the band width of the input signal is a first band width and varies the power supply voltage in accordance with the average output power of the power amplification module in the case where the band width of the input signal is a second band width that is larger than the first band width.
