摘要
This paper presents a linearized power amplifier (PA) MMIC developed for 1.95 GHz wide-band CDMA handsets. Predistortion linearization was employed to compensate the nonlinearities of a PA, achieving high efficiency, high linearity signal amplification operated at 3.5 V supply voltage. To maintain a compact design, the predistorter was integrated with the PA onto a single MMIC chip. After linearization, the output power (P-out) and power added efficiency (PAE) of the PA MMIC improve significantly from 28.0 dBm and 40.0 % to 28.8 dBm and 44.5 %, respectively, measured at -38 dBc adjacent channel leakage power ratio (ACPR) with a 3.84 Mcps hybrid phase shift keying signal. By combining with bias control, the linearized PA MMIC also demonstrates an excellent low P-out (13 dBm) performance, achieving a PAE of 24.0 % at the same ACPR criteria.
