Abstract:
A reconfigurable amplifier includes a first transistor having a gate coupled to an input of the reconfigurable amplifier, and a source coupled to a ground. The reconfigurable amplifier also includes a gate control circuit, and a second transistor having a gate coupled to the gate control circuit, a source coupled to a drain of the first transistor, and a drain coupled to an output of the reconfigurable amplifier, wherein the gate control circuit is configured to output a bias voltage to the gate of the second transistor in a cascode mode, and output a switch voltage to the gate of the second transistor in a non-cascode mode. The reconfigurable amplifier further includes a load coupled to the output of the reconfigurable amplifier.
