Systems, methods, and devices relate to tunable circuits for multimode power amplification. For example, a variable-gain amplification system can include an amplifier configured to provide an amplified signal and to selectively operate in at least a first gain mode and a second gain mode. The variable-gain amplification system can also include a tunable circuit configured to receive the amplified signal from the amplifier and to provide an output signal. The tunable circuit can be configured to implement a first turn ratio for the first gain mode and a second turn ratio for the second gain mode.

Tunable baluns for multimode power amplification

Examples of a capacitive-coupled bandpass filter include a plurality of coupling capacitors connected in series along a signal path extending between an input contact and an output contact, a first harmonic suppression notch circuit configured to provide a first harmonic suppression notch in a frequency response of the capacitive-coupled bandpass filter, and a second harmonic suppression notch circuit configured to provide a second harmonic suppression notch in the frequency response of the capacitive-coupled bandpass filter. The first harmonic suppression notch circuit includes a first pair of series L/C resonators connected in shunt between the signal path and a reference potential, and the second harmonic suppression notch circuit includes a second pair of series L/C resonators connected in shunt between the signal path and the reference potential.
