摘要: A class-D RF power amplifier (PA) architecture with duty cycle control has improved power efficiency while suppressing even-order harmonics. An inductor and capacitor (LC) low pass filter (LPF) can also be integrated on-chip to further suppress harmonics and provide impedance transformation between the PA and load. This eases the design for customers and reduce their bill of materials cost. The LPF can also match the PA to the load impedance to improve efficiency. The harmonic levels can also be controlled by adjusting the duty cycle of the PA output.

摘要: An amplifying circuit includes a first transistor, a second transistor, and a switching circuit. A control terminal of the first transistor is coupled to an input terminal of the amplifying circuit, and a first terminal of the first transistor is coupled to a first reference end. The input terminal of the amplifying circuit receives a first radio frequency (RF) signal. A first terminal of the second transistor is coupled to a second terminal of the first transistor, and a second terminal of the second transistor is coupled to an output terminal of the amplifying circuit. The output terminal of the amplifying circuit outputs an amplified signal. The first transistor amplifies the first RF signal to generate a second RF signal. The switching circuit performs a switching operation to transmit the second RF signal to one of the first terminal and the control terminal of the second transistor.

摘要: A receiver front end amplifier capable of receiving and processing intraband non-contiguous carrier aggregate (CA) signals using multiple low noise amplifiers (LNAs) is disclosed herein. A cascode having a “common source” configured input FET and a “common gate” configured output FET can be turned on or off using the gate of the output FET. A first switch is provided that allows a connection to be either established or broken between the source terminal of the input FET of each LNA. Further switches used for switching degeneration inductors, gate capacitors, and gate to ground capacitors for each leg can be used to further improve the matching performance of the invention.
