Problems solved by technology

As the power of the input signal increases, the output voltage signal also becomes larger, which will cause the top transistor of the structure to have the first breakdown problem
In addition, since the output impedance of the two transistors in the cascode structure is not optimal impedance, the output power is small

Abstract

The invention discloses a radio frequency power amplifier in a two-stage stack structure, comprising an input matching circuit, an output bandwidth matching circuit, and a two-stage amplifier circuit formed by cascading interstage matching circuits. A preceding stage of the two-stage amplifier circuit is a driving stage, and a following stage thereof is a power stage; a radio frequency signal source is connected with a gate electrode of a transistor in the bottommost layer of the driving stage through the input matching circuit, a drain electrode of a transistor in the uppermost layer of the driving stage is connected with one end of the corresponding interstage matching circuit, the other end of this interstage matching circuit is connected with a gate electrode of a transistor in the bottommost layer of the power stage, and a drain electrode of a transistor in the uppermost layer of the power stage is connected with a load through the output bandwidth matching circuit. This circuit enables improvements in the voltage withstand capacity, output voltage swing, operation bandwidth, power efficiency, power gain and maximum output power of the power amplifier and provides better harmonic suppression effect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a power amplifier, in particular to a radio frequency power amplifier. Background technique [0002] As the key unit of the RF front-end in the transceiver, the RF power amplifier is an indispensable and important part of the modern wireless communication system. It is mainly used for the linear amplification of the RF signal and radiates it through the antenna. [0003] With the popularization of smart phones, mobile data is increasing exponentially. In order to meet the requirements of users' high-speed data experience, modern communication systems often use modulation methods with high spectral efficiency, such as QPSK and other modulation methods. This requires the application of new generation communication The system's RF power amplifier must have high power efficiency, linearity and bandwidth. In addition, in order to meet the usage requirements of users in different regions, mobile phones are generally required to supp...
