Abstract:
A power amplifier system having a power amplifier with a signal input and a signal output and bias circuitry is disclosed. The bias circuitry includes a bandgap reference circuit coupled between a reference node and a fixed voltage node. A bias generator has a bias input coupled to the reference node and a bias output coupled to the signal input. Also included is a first digital-to-analog converter having a first converter output coupled to the reference node, a first voltage input, and a first digital input, wherein the first digital-to-analog converter is configured to adjust a reference voltage at the reference node in response to a first digital setting received at the first digital input. The first digital setting correlates with an indication of temperature of the power amplifier.
