Abstract
An RF power amplifier includes a quadrature coupler, an in-phase amplifier, a quadrature amplifier, and a feed-forward signal path. The quadrature coupler includes an in-phase input node, a quadrature input node, an isolated node, and an RF signal output node. The in-phase amplifier includes an in-phase amplifier output node coupled to the in-phase input node. The quadrature amplifier includes a quadrature amplifier output node coupled to the quadrature input node. The feed-forward signal path is configured to couple and condition a signal from one of the in-phase amplifier and the quadrature amplifier in order to provide a feed-forward output signal that when provided at the feed-forward output node cancels one or more harmonic signals.
