摘要: Radio frequency (RF) amplification devices are disclosed that include Doherty amplification circuits and control circuits along with methods of operating the same. In one embodiment, the Doherty amplification circuit includes a quadrature coupler having an isolation port and a tunable impedance load coupled to the isolation port and configured to provide a tunable impedance. The control circuit is configured to tune the tunable impedance of the tunable impedance load at the isolation port dynamically as a function of the RF power of the Doherty amplification circuit. In this manner, the control circuit can provide dynamic load modulation, thereby increasing the power efficiency of the Doherty amplification circuit, particularly at backed-off power levels. The load modulation provided by the control circuit also allows the Doherty amplification circuit to provide broadband amplification in various RF communication bands.

摘要: An unbalanced linear power amplifier (PA) is disclosed having a quadrature coupler with a 90° phase input port, a 0° phase input port, an output termination port, and a signal output port. Each of the 90° phase input port, the 0° phase input port, the output termination port, and the signal output port have a characteristic resistance (Ro). Also included is a first PA having an output coupled to a 90° phase input port of the quadrature coupler and a second PA having an output coupled to a 0° phase input port of the quadrature coupler. Biasing circuitry provides the first PA and the second PA with a similar gain. A tuning network is coupled between the output termination port and ground. The tuning network has an isolation resistance in series with an isolation inductance, wherein the isolation resistance is between about 0.02*Ro Ω and 0.8*Ro Ω.

摘要: Radio frequency (RF) amplification devices are disclosed that include Doherty amplification circuits and methods of operating the same. In one embodiment, a Doherty amplification circuit includes a main carrier RF amplifier, a peaking RF amplifier, and a periodic quadrature coupler. To provide Doherty amplification, the peaking RF amplifier is configured to be deactivated while an RF signal is below a threshold level and is configured to be activated while the RF signal is above the threshold level. The periodic quadrature coupler is configured to combine a first RF split signal from the main carrier RF amplifier and a second RF split signal from the peaking RF amplifier into the RF signal, such that the RF signal is output from an output port while the peaking RF amplifier is activated. The periodic quadrature coupler allows the Doherty amplification circuit to provide broadband amplification in various RF communication bands.
