    Abstract: An RF power amplifier is described including a first amplifier and a second amplifier arranged in parallel between an RF power amplifier input and an RF power amplifier output. A phase adjuster adjusts the phase of a signal on at least one of the first amplifier signal path and the second amplifier signal path. A first impedance inverter has a first impedance inverter input coupled to an output of the second amplifier and a first impedance inverter output coupled to the RF power amplifier output. The RF power amplifier is configured to enable at least one of the first amplifier and the second amplifier dependent on an operation mode and the first impedance inverter is configured to modulate the load impedance of the second amplifier in response to the operation mode changing.
