Wideband amplifier linearization techniques
Abstract:
A wideband power amplifier (PA) linearization technique is proposed. A current interpolation technique is proposed to linearize power amplifiers over a wide bandwidth. The wideband power amplifier linearization technique employs a novel transconductance Gm linearizer using a current interpolation technique that achieves improvement in the third order intermodulation over wide bandwidth for a sub-micron CMOS differential power amplifier. By using a small amount of compensating bias into an opposite phase differential pair, linearization over wide bandwidth is achieved and can be optimized by adjusting the compensating bias.
