Abstract
A driver circuit for a composite power amplifier configured to operate in at least one Chireix-mode a first and a second sub-amplifier for amplification of an input signal into an output signal is disclosed. An input network of the driver circuit comprises a means configured to provide a first signal which is linearly derivable from the input signal, and a second signal which is non-linearly derivable from the input signal. The input network combines the first signal, at zero degrees phase shift, and the second signal, at 90 degrees phase shift, to obtain a first feeding signal for the first sub-amplifier. Furthermore, the input network combines the first signal, at 180 degrees phase shift, and the second signal, at 90 degrees phase shift, to obtain a second feeding signal for the second sub-amplifier.
