摘要
The authors present a 1.8GHz class E power amplifier for wireless communications. A fully integrated class E power amplifier module was designed, fabricated and tested. The circuit was implemented in a self-aligned-gate, depletion mode 0.8 mu m GaAs MESFET process. The amplifier delivers 23dBm of power to the 50 Ohm load, with a power added efficiency of 57% at a supply voltage of 2.4V.
