Abstract:
Disclosed are systems and methods related to matching an impedance of the power amplifier to an impedance of the antenna in a power amplifier module that includes an amplifier circuit residing on a first semiconductor die and an output matching network (OMN) that includes a first partial OMN and a second partial OMN. The first partial OMN resides on the first semiconductor die and matches an output impedance of the amplifier circuit to an input impedance of the second partial OMN. The second partial OMN matches an output impedance of the first partial OMN with an input impedance of the antenna and is not part of the first semiconductor die.
