Abstract:
A power amplifier circuit, including: an input node configured to receive a radio frequency (RF) signal; an output node configured to output an amplified RF signal; a main path switchably coupled between the input node and the output node, and including a first plurality of amplification stages to generate a first amplified RF signal; a bypass path switchably coupled between the input node and the output node, and including at least one second amplification stage to generate a second amplified RF signal; and a coupling switch configured to reuse at least a portion of the bypass path to drive the main path to generate a third amplified RF signal.
Abstract:
The present invention provides an amplifying apparatus including, two amplifiers for receiving input signals in common and for outputting their respective amplified signals, a combiner for combining the output signals of the two amplifiers and for outputting a combined signal, the amplifying apparatus which inhibit the distortion component in the output of amplifiers in the transition state. This amplifying apparatus comprises, a predistortion unit for determining a distortion compensation component based on the output of the combiner and for predistorting the input based on the determined distortion compensation component, and a gain control unit for attenuating the inputs to set lower than in the steady state by reducing the gain in the transition from two amplifier operation to one amplifier operation, or in the transition from one amplifier operation to two amplifier operation, or at the time of removal or attachment the amplifiers.

Abstract:
The variable power supply to an amplifier in an electrical circuit is dynamically controlled through the use of a lookup table responsive to one or more operating conditions of the electrical circuit. The lookup table is indexed by one or more of the operating conditions and the amount of amplification to be applied to an input signal to the amplifier is determined. One embodiment of the invention comprises a television transmitter circuit including a power amplifier circuit capable of amplifying a variable frequency COFDM or 8VSB input signal where the amount of amplification applied to the input signal is dynamically controlled through the use of a lookup table as a function of the frequency of the input signal.
