Abstract

An average power tracking mode power amplifier is disclosed herein. The average power tracking mode power amplifier includes a Power Amplifier (PA), a first Direct Current (DC)-DC voltage converter, and a second DC-DC voltage converter. The PA includes a driver stage configured to be driven by first drive voltage and a main amplification stage configured to be driven by second drive voltage. The first DC-DC voltage converter generates the first drive voltage from power voltage so that the first drive voltage is equal to or higher than the power voltage, and applies the generated first drive voltage to the driver stage. The second DC-DC voltage converter generates the second drive voltage from the power voltage so that the second drive voltage is higher than the first drive voltage, and applies the generated second drive voltage to the main amplification stage.
