A radio frequency amplifier circuit is provided. A matching circuit is configured on a radio frequency path of an input end or an output end of an amplifier. An inductance-capacitance resonance circuit and the matching circuit share an inductor included in the matching circuit to generate a corresponding resonance frequency. The matching circuit provides an input impedance or an output impedance matching two fundamental tones in a radio frequency signal at a first frequency and a second frequency. The inductance-capacitance resonance circuit provides a filtering path for filtering a signal component outside a frequency band formed by the first frequency and the second frequency in the radio frequency signal.

Radio frequency amplifier circuit

A radio frequency signal amplification device includes an amplification circuit, an impedance matching circuit, a frequency detection circuit, and a control circuit. The amplification circuit has an input terminal and an output terminal. The amplification circuit amplifies a radio frequency (RF) signal received from the input terminal, and generates an amplified radio frequency signal to the output terminal. The impedance matching circuit is coupled to the input terminal or the output terminal of the amplification circuit. The impedance matching circuit receives the radio frequency signal and provides an impedance matching the radio frequency signal, or receives the amplified radio frequency signal and provides an impedance matching the amplified radio frequency signal. The frequency detection circuit determines a frequency band to which the radio frequency signal belongs. The control circuit adjusts the impedance of the impedance matching circuit according to the frequency band.

A linearized bias circuit with adaptation resolves the problem happening to the power amplifier with conventional bias circuit that the DC and AC characteristics of the power amplifier shift or even deteriorate due to a temperature variation. The linearized bias circuit with adaptation has a reference voltage source, a first voltage source, a first resistor, a second resistor, a first NPN transistor, a second NPN transistor, and a third NPN transistor. The present invention has the characteristics of bias current temperature compensation, gain and phase compensations to achieve high linearity for the conventional power amplifier and reducing the DC consumption power. At the same time, the quantity of the required elements and layout area in the present invention are small so that the design complexity can be reduced for improving yield, reducing IC layout area, and reducing cost.
