    Abstract: One example includes a device that is comprised of a pre-power amplifier, a power amplifier, a signal path, and a dynamic bias circuit. The pre-power amplifier amplifies an input signal and outputs a first amplified signal. The power amplifier receives the first amplified signal and amplifies the first amplified signal based on a dynamic bias signal to produce a second amplified signal at an output thereof. The signal path is coupled between an output of the pre-power amplifier and an input of the power amplifier. The dynamic bias circuit monitors the first amplified signal, generates the dynamic bias signal, and outputs the dynamic bias into the signal path.

    Abstract: An integrated circuit device is provided. In some examples, the integrated circuit device includes a first amplifier path, a second amplifier path coupled in parallel with the first amplifier path, a matching network coupled to the first amplifier path and the second amplifier path, and an antenna coupled to the matching network. In some such examples, the first amplifier path includes a first differential power amplifier coupled to the matching network, and the second amplifier path includes a second differential power amplifier coupled to the matching network. The integrated circuit device may further include a controller coupled to selectively enable the first amplifier path to provide a transmitter output power within a first range and to selectively enable the second amplifier path to provide a transmitter output power within a second range that is different from the first range.
