Abstract
A radio frequency (RF) amplifier circuit includes an amplifier device and a first baseband bias circuit. The amplifier device includes a first input configured to receive a first signal to be amplified and a first output configured to output a first amplified signal. The first baseband bias circuit includes an input coupled to the first output of the amplifier device. The first baseband bias circuit includes a first envelope decoupling circuit and a first harmonic decoupling circuit. The first envelope decoupling circuit includes a first bulk capacitor and a first distributed inductor configured to resonate in a baseband frequency range. The first harmonic decoupling circuit includes a second bulk capacitor and a second distributed inductor configured to resonate at a harmonic frequency of the frequency of the first signal received at the input of the amplifier device.
