    Abstract: A voltage-step down rectifier topology suitable for integration on a die of an integrated circuit is described. In one embodiment, a switched capacitor rectifier is provided having an architecture such that an input voltage swing of the switched-capacitor rectifier is a factor N times an output voltage where N depends upon the number of stages such that the switched-capacitor rectifier can provide a π/(2N) step-down voltage conversion ratio between an input fundamental ac peak voltage to the output dc voltage. In one embodiment, the rectifier is used in dc-dc conversion. In one embodiment, the rectifier is used in ac power delivery to low-voltage electronics.

    Abstract: A power combining and outphasing system and related techniques for simultaneously providing both wide-bandwidth linear amplification and high average efficiency is described. Providing linear amplification encompasses the ability to dynamically control an RF output power level over a wide range while still operating over a wide frequency bandwidth. The system and techniques described herein also operate to maintain high efficiency across a wide range of output power levels, such that a high average efficiency can be achieved for highly modulated output waveforms.

    Abstract: In accordance with the concepts, circuits and techniques described herein, a converter circuit is provided having multiple half-bridge switching cells that can be selectively controlled using one or more switching patterns to convert a source voltage to a desired output voltage over wide voltage and power ranges while maintaining zero-voltage switching and/or zero-current switching. The converter circuit includes capacitive elements disposed between center switching nodes of the half-bridge switching cells and fixed potentials and a magnetic energy storage element coupling the center switching nodes of first and second half-bridge switching cells. A controller is coupled to the converter circuit to monitor, control and apply one or more switching patterns the half-bridge switching cells such that components of the half-bridge switching cells are switched having a minimal or zero voltage (or current) across them.
