    Abstract: 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.

    Abstract: A current control circuit controls a base current of a first transistor included in a bias circuit outputting a bias current to a power amplifier based on a base-collector voltage of the first transistor. The current control circuit includes a first circuit that outputs a signal associated with the base-collector voltage of the first transistor, and a second circuit that, based on the signal, provides electrical continuity between a base of the first transistor and a reference potential.

    Abstract: A bias power supply circuit operates in one of a plurality of current generation modes generating bias power source currents of different levels. The bias power source current is reduced where a first detection signal indicates that a power source voltage is less than a first threshold value. Under control of a bias control circuit, a bias circuit operates in one of an on mode and an off mode wherein the on mode is a mode in which the bias power source current generated by the bias power supply circuit is supplied to a power amplifying transistor as a bias current, and the off mode is a mode in which the bias current whose level is reduced compared with a case where the bias circuit operates in the on mode is supplied or supply of the bias current is stopped.

    Abstract: A current output circuit includes an input circuit that outputs a second current in response to a first current when the first current is inputted, an output circuit that outputs a third current in response to the second current, and a control circuit that causes the output circuit to output a current when a control signal is inputted before the first current is inputted to the input circuit. The output circuit includes transistors of a first group and the input circuit includes transistors of a second group.
