Abstract: DC to DC converter circuitry includes a dual phase charge pump and at least one pair of multiplier phase circuits. The dual phase charge pump is coupled to each one of the at least one pair of multiplier circuits and adapted to receive a DC input voltage and only four control signals, and produce a stepped-up output voltage. Each one of the at least one pair of multiplier phase circuits are adapted to receive the stepped-up output voltage, a cross-coupled control signal from the other multiplier phase circuit in the pair of multiplier phase circuits, and a different one of the control signals and further multiply the stepped-up output voltage to produce a multiplied stepped-up output voltage with a magnitude that is approximately three times that of the DC input voltage or greater.

Abstract: Power amplification devices are described, which are configured to amplify a radio frequency (RF) transmission signal. The power amplification device includes a voltage regulation circuit and a power amplification circuit. The voltage regulation circuit is configured to generate a regulated voltage for the power amplification device from a supply voltage and to adjust a regulated voltage level of the regulated voltage in accordance with a voltage adjustment gain. The voltage adjustment gain of the voltage regulation circuit is set by a feedback resistance. To help prevent the voltage regulation circuit from saturating, the voltage regulation circuit adjusts the feedback resistance to reduce the voltage regulation gain.

Abstract: A power amplification device is disclosed that includes a power amplification circuit operable to amplify a radio frequency (RF) signal in accordance with an amplification gain, and a voltage regulation circuit operable to generate a regulated voltage. A regulated voltage level of the regulated voltage sets the amplification gain. To help prevent the voltage regulation circuit from saturating, the voltage regulation circuit is configured to reduce a voltage adjustment gain when the regulated voltage level reaches a threshold voltage level. In one embodiment, the threshold voltage level is set to be higher when a band-select signal indicates that the RF signal is being transmitted within a first frequency band, and is set to be lower when the band-select signal indicates that the RF signal is being transmitted within a second frequency band. The spectral performance of the power amplification device thus improves with regard to the second frequency band.
