Abstract: An apparatus includes a main amplifier core and auxiliary amplifier core(s), an input signal splitter connected to inputs of the main amplifier core and the auxiliary amplifier core(s), and an output combiner connected to outputs of the main amplifier core and an the auxiliary amplifier core(s). The input signal splitter is configured to split an input signal into a first signal for the main amplifier core and at second signal(s) for the auxiliary amplifier core(s) according to frequency dependent nonlinear input drive functions. The output combiner is configured to combine output signals of the main amplifier core and the auxiliary amplifier core(s), and to provide a continuum of optimum termination impedances of the main amplifier core for the fundamental frequency and at least one harmonic frequency over a predetermined bandwidth of operation, in a low power region. The low power region is defined by the auxiliary amplifier core(s) being inactive.
