Systems and methods are provided for producing an amplified radio frequency (RF) signal representing a baseband input signal. A first amplifier amplifies a first intermediate signal to provide a first amplified signal. Second and third amplifiers amplify a second intermediate signal to provide second and third amplified signals. A signal combiner combines the first, second, and third amplified signals to produce the amplified RF signal. An RF modulator modulates an RF carrier signal with a baseband input signal to provide the first and second intermediate signals. The RF modulator provides the first and second intermediate signals such that the first amplified signal is out-of-phase with each of the second and third amplified signals at an output of an active device within the second amplifier when the amplitude of the baseband input signal exceeds a threshold voltage and in phase when the baseband input signal is below a threshold voltage.
