Abstract
A bias circuit generates a bias current to an RF power amplifier used for transmitting RF signals, and the amount of the bias current supplied to the RF power amplifier can be configured in multiple modes through transistor switches that are controlled by mode control signals, so that the bias current supplied to the RF power amplifier can be adjusted according to the required power level of the transmitting RF signals. In addition, the bias current can be turned off by another transistor switch that is controlled by a power control signal for saving power while the RF power amplifier is not transmitting RF signals.
