    摘要: The present disclosure provides a power amplifier circuit capable of suppressing the occurrence of noises while enabling control of an output power level. The power amplifier circuit includes a first transistor that amplifies a first signal; a bias circuit that supplies a bias current or voltage based on a control signal to the first transistor; a second transistor to which a control current based on the control signal is supplied, which has an emitter or a source thereof connected to a collector or a drain of the first transistor, and from which a second signal obtained by amplifying the first signal is output; and a first feedback circuit provided between the collector or the drain of the second transistor and the base or the gate of the second transistor.

    摘要: There is provided a power amplifier circuit with improved operation speed of the protection function against overcurrent or overvoltage. The power amplifier circuit includes an amplifier configured to amplify a radio frequency signal and output the radio frequency signal, a bias current supply circuit configured to supply a bias current to the amplifier, a detection circuit configured to detect whether the current or voltage of the amplifier is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold; and a draw circuit configured to, when the detection circuit detects that the current or voltage is equal to or greater than the predetermined threshold, draw at least a part of the bias current supplied to the amplifier.

    摘要: A power amplifier module includes a first transistor that amplifies and outputs a radio frequency signal, a second transistor smaller in size than the first transistor and connected in parallel with the first transistor, a third transistor that supplies a bias current to the first and second transistors, a current detection circuit that detects a current flowing through a collector of the second transistor, and a bias control circuit that controls the bias current supplied from the third transistor to the first and second transistors by supplying a current corresponding to a detection result of the current detection circuit to a collector or a drain of the third transistor. In a case that a current flowing through the collector of the second transistor is larger than a predetermined threshold value, the bias control circuit reduces the current supplied to the collector or the drain of the third transistor.
