Abstract
Embodiments of the disclosure are drawn to apparatuses and methods for a tunable digital power amplifier (DPA). The tunable DPA may be coupled to a reconfigurable capacitor to form a frequency tunable DPA. The capacitance of the reconfigurable capacitor may be adjusted to optimize the DPA to operate at a desired frequency band. The single tunable DPA may operate over a wide range of frequencies.
