  • Abstract
    A 2.4G-Hz high linear power amplifier (PA) with a parallel class A&B structure is presented. The self-biased cascode transistors are used to improve the reliability. The PA was fabricated in a 0.13-μm CMOS process. Measurement results show the power gain is 9.6dB and the output power at the 1dB compression point is larger than 10.6dBm under a single supply voltage of +3.3V. The measured IMD3 is -40dBc at around 0.3dBm output power (one-tone each) in two-tone test.
