Abstract

A high performance integrated tunable impedance matching network with coupled merged inductors. Embodiments include a combination of merged multiport constructively coupled spiral inductors and tunable capacitors configured to reduce insertion losses, circuit size, and optimization time while maintaining a high Q factor for the coupled spiral inductors. Some embodiments integrate one or more filter circuits with a tunable impedance matching network, useful in conjunction with such applications as radio frequency power amplifiers.
