PAE improvement of PCS MMIC power amplifier with a bias control circuit
A high efficient HBT MMIC power amplifier with a new on-chip bias control circuit was proposed for PCS applications. By adjusting the quiescent current in accordance with the output power levels, the average power usage efficiency of the power amplifier is improved by a factor of 1.4. The bias controlled power amplifier, depending on low (high) output power levels, shows 62(103) mA of quiescent current, 16(28) dBm output power with 7.5(35.4)% of power-added efficiency (PAE), -46(-45) dBc of adjacent-channel power ratio (ACPR), and 23.7(26.9) dB of gain.
